I am new to this site... Need to figure out how to do my profile... It says I am Pre op... But I am almost, like, 2 years post op...

I recieved my lap band on January 31, 2012. I am an Army Wife and so I had my surgery at one post as 6 months later moved to another post. This new post does thing WAY differently than the last post. I like how they do things here much, much better than the last post. Anyway, my bariatric nurse here said that some surgeons will place mesh on the port to stabilize it. I, apparently, have no mesh so my port will move a little. Sometimes when she is giving me a fill it will tilt a little side to side. I can also "massage" it a little and feel it moving some. It's kind of weird... Lol. But, it's a reminder on who I used to be, and the decision I made to be who I am now. It also sometimes moves when my jeans hit it a certain.
