Marci - I love that you could get your 18's on...lying down to zip and all! It doesn't seem so painful when the pants you are trying to get in are smaller than the ones you are in...LOL! I had a laugh myself this past week...the 22's that were finally comfortable slipped off with unzipping or unbuttoning...WOO HOO! I, of course, called my daughter to brag! She had bypass over a year ago and is a svelte size 10 but since the 22's were once hers, she got a laugh out of it too! I'm not sure what a "NSV" is - I can never find the place to look that stuff up...maybe I had a NSV too!

Hi - I just found this thread and am jumping right in for my first post. I was banded on 5/24 and came home on 5/25. So far so good. I have minimal pain and am wandering around trying to keep myself busy. Of course, the TV decided today that it wasn't going to work anymore. Just my luck! My dh thinks I'm sleeping too much but hey, my body is repairing itself. I have the right to sleep! :notagree Everthing seems to be 'moving' right along. My only complaint is itching along the plastic bandage edges. Drinking water and Instant Breakfast, 4 oz of each on alternate hours....hard to remember to do sometimes as I'm not hungry. But after reading some of these posts, I guess that will change. It's nice to meet everyone and to be a part of the Merry May Banders! Good luck to all! Nala
