Awesome! I hope we can be buddies and share our struggles along the way...strangely i have had no issues at all. I was only on pain meds for a day after surgery, a little bit of gas pressure struggles from the surgery itself but nothing major...other than that i feel normal...so all is well so far and looking forward to my first adjustment next week...

I was banded July 26th and so far so good! Looking forward to my post op appointment and then my first adjustment...staying strong! about a pound down every 2 days...slow and steady wins the race!

I had my surgery on July 26th and so far I feel great! Still on my liquid diet for a week, so after today I will get to move to the soft food phase. I lost 18lbs prior to surgery (2 week pre-op diet) and so far I am down 6 lbs in 6 days (since surgery). I know this will eventually slow down, but after my post op appointment and my first adjustment I plan to hit the pavement and walk-jog 5 fays a week. I am excited for the jourmey and I appreciate all of you who are here in support of this surgery! Any advice is appreciated!

Congrats on your decision! I was banded on July 26th and am feeling great so far!
