I'm 8 days post op. The most important thing is make sure you follow your post op diet. It's not a fun diet but your doing it for a good reason. It helps your stomach, body and band acclimate to the new adjustment. Good luck and congratulations

I'm only 8 days post op and I'm following my dr instructions. Before I was banded I made sure I knew all the odds and ends about it. The reason why it is so important to follow your drs instructions is it gets your stomach used to having the band around it. It also acclimates your body to a new eating habit. Ik it's not fun being ion such a strange diet but it doesn't last forever. I really hope your journey goes well. Good luck

Thank you all for the advice. My dad is here taking care of me threw my recovery. Today isn't as good as yesterday I feel kinda....what's the word sluggish. And the hiccups might kill me I'm sure.

Had my surgery yesterday. I'm not in that much pain. I am following my diet. I'm really scared about having loose skin. Does anyone know the best exercises to reduce this.
