I had my Lapband removed a couple of weeks ago and will have the sleeve done 4 months after removal. Did you feel up to another surgery at that time? I'm actually wanting to have it done 3 months after because I think I will gain so much weight.

Thank you both for your replies. I'm certainly going to start planning meals better. Toddy sounds like you had a great recovery second time round.

I was required to do 2 weeks of optifast. I started it but it didn't agree with me so they changed me to a low fat diet for 2 weeks prior. All the best with your removal. I had mine a couple of weeks ago and feel awesome.

Yes that makes sense. I've lost a few kilos this week which has been nice.

Today is Sunday and I had my Lapband removed on Tuesday afternoon. I am having a lot of pain in the left hand side of my stomach. It's not severe but making it hard to walk. My port was situated just under in breast bone in the middle. Did anyone else have this pain after 5 days? I see my surgeon tomorrow. Thanks.

Yes on liquids for a few days and then purée for a couple of weeks and then soft and move towards hard foods. I didn't realise I would have to do this after the lapband removal. I read of lots of people having the lapband removed and eating a burger on the way home. I was shocked to hear of the post op diet after removal.

Have you also had some problems?

My band had slipped and I had a huge amount of stomach sitting above the band.

I found the OPtifast shakes aweful but loved the bars. The cappacino and the chocolate were great.
