Thank you so much, I really feel there will be nothing to worry about but this is still all new to me! I will keep in touch.

Hello to all, I was banded on 11/21/08 and now am going to have a hysterctomy and am scared that this may cause complications with my band. Can anyone offer any advice or share their stories with me? Thanks for the help. Heather

I know most of us have tickers but I was just we could post our surgery date and how much we have lost to date. Just curious to see if we are all losing at the same pace. Heather Banded 11/21 Current weight loss 26lbs!

Hello all, I was banded on Nov. 21st and have been feeling great! The most awesome thing happened the other day I crossed my legs!:thumbup: That seems so small to some but to me that was a big step! I had my first fill yesterday and was scared out of my mind after reading what some people post about their experiences. I must say there was nothing to it the np was great it only took a few minutes I was at the drs office for a total of 30 minutes and today so far I feel great! I hope everyone is having much success!

Hey everyone, I havent been on since 11/21 surgery. I am doing pretty good, they had to do a hernia repair with surgery, and I assume that is why I havent felt as good as I was hoping. Then to top it all off Tuesday morning I was dropping off baby at mother in laws for the day and I slipped and fell when I was leaving, call me grace....lol....I have been very sore since but am better today! Just wanted to check in and see how things were with everyone else, good luck to all!

Hello all, I just found yall, I am going in for surgery tomorrow (11/21) Gosh the emotions that I fee. The 2 week preop diet has been hard and I have had my moments but the closer I get the less it seems to bother me. I have done great these last 5 days! I will let you all know how everything goes.:thumbup:

OK I am scheduled to have surgery on Friday 11/21 and I had a week moment on Saturday now I am scared that I have sabotaged my 2 week post op diet! Please anyone else I need your thoughts!

Thank you all for your encouragement, I have decided to only have my slim fast, protien shake, and nothing but water until then. I am so nervous, excited, happy, scared, gosh there are so many emotions but this is the one thing I not only want but need! Best of luck to you all and I will keep posting!:smile2:

Hello to everyone, this will be my first post but definately not my last. I have been lurking for the past 6 months waiting on meeting all of my qualifactions for the lap band. I was approved last week on Thursday(11/7) Started my liquid diet on Friday(11/8) talk about no time for the last supper :thumbup: I am scheduled to be banded on 11/21 and am just looking for some encouraging words from anyone. So far the diet is going great I have already lost 6 lbs but I wont say that I havent been hungry!

Good luck to you also, hope all goes well. I will completely miss Thanksgiving but I know it will be worth it in the long run! I can do this!!!!:thumbup:
