Just have to share. I'm 10 days out and I'm finally feeling pretty good. I still have port pain, but only when I move suddenly. The Dr. said that with everything he had to go through to get the port in there, it's no wonder I have extra pain. I'm so excited. This morning I put on a coat that I couldn't even get close to closing let alone zipping last week. Today I zipped. Yippeeee. I am concerned that I'm not getting in all my calories. Good with protein and liquid. I'm keeping a food journal at myfitnesspal.com. (great place) Glad to hear from everyone.

Tomorrow is almost upon us. It's time to wish Sanid1011, Auddie, Carolnpx, 31andrew, txskoolnurse and phlphan, the very best during their surgery. Prayers are with you. Please keep us posted.

Son owns the As Seen On TV store at the Great Plains Mall in Kansas, so I know ASOTV stores have them, but I think I remember seeing them in Linens & Things & Bed Bath & Beyond type stores.

Lady, I love my bullet. It's great for creaming up chunkier soups and you can microwave in it too. I entered twoderland this week. It's a great thing!!

It's only me wishing the best of everything to tomorrow's Bunny Bandsters. Lapbandgirl2009, lulululu, MissChristine, terelbel, Carrie_W,Ingrein, Rangergirl, hope4j, WendyII, Isitworthit and pitterpat79 Please keep us in the loop.

Thank you so much for bringing me back in touch with reality. It's just so new and the possibilities are so inviting.

I thought it was only me. My port is killing me. It is midway on the left side. With three other mini holes about an inch apart in a line above it under the left breast. Not the normal scenario

I hope everything went well today for Lachdanon, Elayne, babydoll1, 2Legit2 Quit, tawandabee, hairnv, memzie, Jeansthings, aris, taina009, IsabellaP84, pottergirl and swrktp. So sorry I didn't get this message out last night, but I was thinking of you.

I know how you feel. My stomach is very swollen and I it hurts me to put clothes ON. Still alot of pain. My post-op is the 30th.

I'm having trouble eating too. Just no desire. I'm still in alot of pain. I can hardly walk. The weight of my stomach is pulling at the port incision. Also when does the shoulder pain go away. Other than that - I'm wonderful

Friday night my SO's bowling night & I usually go with him. Last night I assured him I would be ok alone. When he came home he had a Mickey D bag. The smell of french fries killed me. Had a rough night. Had the shoulder pain and just couldn't get comfortable with port pain. I forgot oxycodone gives me a killer headache. So I said to myself, just put on your big girl panties and deal with it, cause I'm a Bunny Bandster!!!

TA DA!!! My prayers were answered. He was able to band me. Got to the Hospital at 9am. Surgery was supposed to be at 10:30. Went into OR at 11:05 and woke up in recovery at 1:55. Surgeon said it was a challenge. Got home at 2:30. Then, sleep, sip, pain med & walk. Sleep, sip, pain med & walk. No shoulder pain or gas just port pain. Hope all went well for my day mates.

I found you all. You didn't lose me. Glad to hear everyone is doing well.

Before time gets away from me, I want to send best wishes for a great day tommorow to Pdburch, jaytee562 and sdeale0928. Hope all goes well for "everyone".

OK, now I'm really really nervous. Just saw this post from last June. Well guys no banding for me today. I got to the hospital at 6:15 went to surgery at 7:30 and by 8:00 the doctor was talking to my husband. He said there was no way -to much scar tissue in my stomach... I'm so afraid this is going to happen to me.

This too was going to be a problem for me. I asked the Bariatric Coordinator and she said 1 - 2 cups would be Ok, if I increased my fluid because coffee is a diuretic. It's confusing. I think there should be one set of do's and don'ts.

So I decided that they all thought I was having a boob job and thought I'd wear a pair of oranges in my bra my first day back and see what their reaction was - what do you think? :tt2: Mommad, I love your idea. I've only told a few people at work what I'm doing, and I'm sure the rest will be wondering, so I figured when they start asking why I'm going to be out, I'm just going to tell them I'm having a sex-change operation, or something equally outrageous. The both of your are a crack up. Too funny!!

Glad to hear you're up and about. Hope the nausea leaves you along. Feel better.
