I have had 6 fills since October. I did not really feel restriction until my last fill on Wednesday. I believe that slow and steady wins the race. If you push it your band could slip. Be patient, it will come.
There is nothing like feeling confident in yourself. I throught that being heavier did not bother me, but know that I have lost some weight I know I lacked some confidence in myself. Congrads
The economy has been the biggest changed for us. I have to think twice about going to wholefoods and buy salomon, tuna fillets. I don't buy junk because it can really eat into your food budget.
I had surgery at faulkner with Dr. Vernon. I love the single rooms. I also had surgery at brighams 3 months later. It went very well. They are both teaching hosipital so you get alot of traffic. I would highly recommend my surgeon as well as brighams/faulkner.
I told everyone. I think of this surgery as a blessing. When I was having surgery they found something else. This probably would not have been found if I was not being banded. I had another surgery and now I am on the mend and feeling great. I now have a friend that is thinking about getting banded.
