I had to work for it. I sell real estate...so I had to sell a house, and dedicate my fees to surgery. I actually sold my neighbors ranch along with the cattle. This was a large sale so I will have a little extra cash I will save for my ps. I also had a back up plan (plan B) I won $22,000. from a jackpot at a gamming club in RENO. I had put the money away a couple of years ago while I was deciding to have surgery.

My BMI was 32.5 I had surgery 01/21/08. Call down to Mexico it take a week to set a date and it over. My dh is supportive but it was over before he had much time to think about it. As for telling anyone no needs to know accept dh. I am one happy woman. Love my band think I'll give her a name.

walk, walk, walk, it will relieve the gassy tummy. drink slowly.

I was banded on 01/21/08 I stayed on clear for a week. I only took pain meds at hospital. I stayed in Mexico 3 days. When I returned home just layed around and walked the gas off my tummy. Maybe you are rushing things a bit. This is not a drive through surgery... Hope you get well soon. Keep us posted

I just returned from my mini spa vacation in Mexico. Dr. Lopez was my tour guide. The whole adventure was just as I thought very easy. I did suffer with gas pain and, the cure is walk, walk, and, more walk It really works. I am home now resting comfortable sipping on my fruit2o it's wonderful and the drink keeps me hydrated. OH... by the way I just turned 66 years young. I will be happy to lose the fat and the pain in my hips. Hugs to you all,

Helo new friends. I am 66 yo. I think young, act young, but my old hips know I'm not getting any younger. I finally decided to do something about the weight that I have lost about a 100 times only to see it reapear again. Looks like I be around a while my dm just made 95 yo. I have scheduled lap band surgery 1/21/08. Wish me luck.

Jennifer... let us know when you have surgery scheduled so we can send good thoughts to you.
