Hello everyone inLap band world. I was just banded on 3/17/08. I had a scare already but that's because I believe I may be a hypochondriac. I had so much pain in my lower right leg that I thought I had a blood clot forming. But after spending 6.5 hours in the emergency room I was told that I was okay. I am getting use to eating this liquid diet but it is difficult. I will do what I'm supposed to because I don't wan't to vomit. I am looking forward to eating some good soup in the next couple of days. The pain is finally minimized and I am doing okay. I am ready to get out of the house. I am so happy that I had this done.
