Hello! I just wanted to introduce myself. I was banded on December 15th by Dr. Murr at Tampa General Hospital in Florida. With the pre-op diet & 10 days with the Lap Band, I have lost 15 lbs. I feel like I've recovered pretty well, I still have some pain on the port side though. Hopefully that will go away soon. Anyways, I hope everyone has had a blessed Christmas!!:tongue2:
