Hi - I am a super-size bandster. My initial consult weight - was 561 and my weight on surgery day was 532. I'm 5'6".
I had my surgery on July 23, 2007 at KU Med Center with Dr. Niazy Selim. I ended up having 8 incisions. I stayed overnight, as my oxygen stats were low.
I'm still having some pain/soreness. I've been walking down to the end of the block, and doing some gentle exercise band stretches.
