  1. Hi, I am having surgery on June 4th. I would really like to know the REALITY of what to expect immediately after surgery. Pain issues, unexpected pros and cons, etc. Anything you can offer would be helpful. I know no two people are the same, but I like to be informed. Thanks!

    Two Weeks Post Op

    I am a week and a half away from having surgery, and I can't wait for restriction! I was supposed to have surgery in November, but I got a blood clot in my leg -- postponing it for 6 more months. It has been so hard to be consistent in eating well, with the set-backs. It is encouraging to me to hear that the tool does help with fullness and restraint. Have any of you had much experience with vomiting since surgery? Or have you mastered the "edge" fairly quickly to avoid it?

    First 24-48 Hours...

    Thank you for sharing your experiences. It really does help to use this site to see what other people have gone through. I have my pre-op today. I plan on asking about the pain meds given in the hospital as well as that abdomina binder.
