Is anyone from the Canton area? I was banded on May 31... I would like to get together with someone and walk...

oh by the way... I know everyone is jealous because I look so sexy!!! Ummm not really much pain at all. I took gas-x for the first few days and made sure that I walked around a lot. I also took a lot of slow, deep breaths to expand things in there. Surprisingly, the most pain has come from my port area. I suspect this might be something that they will improve in years to come because that seems to cause a lot of people problems. It is still quite swollen in that area... and if I get out of breath at all.. it is uncomfortable around that area. Otherwise I am doing great. I was 12 pounds down at one week and can totally tell a difference.

hi.. I just got banded a week ago today and I am down 12 pounds. I love my band. The post op has been easy. Ask me anything

It may be gas... I would try some gas-x and start walking. Hope it helps

OMG... if you continue to drink sodas you will have nothing but problems

cleo... you seem to have a really bad attitude

Hey... I REALLY love Arbonne protein shakes. It comes in powder and you mix it with water or milk (milk adds 100 cals but also 8 grams of protein.) It comes in Chocolate, Vanilla, and Chai Latte and there is also an orange fiber supplement that is great!!. I mix the chocolate, chai latte, and a little of the orange in a blender with milk and some ice. These are great. With that mixture you would have about 28-30 grams of protein. Now with Arbonne you can only buy the products through consultants but you can get the stuff on e-bay. :: Arbonne International :: If you want to order together, we can use my mom's id number and get a huge discount. I am telling you this because they taste great and are really healthy not because I am looking for my mom to make any money. It uses pea protein if you would like to look it up. I am 5 days post op and down 9 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love my band
