I was banded by Dr. Curry on January 12th and have nothing but good things to say about him and his staff. Like someone else said, the majority of his staff is banded, and so is he. I was self pay as well, and his prices with aftercare and all is one of the best around.

I don't know if anyone else has already said this, but if I eat too much I get a really bad pain in my shoulder, then a headache. It either lasts until whatever I'm eating makes its way through my band, or I will PB. No fun either way.

I don't know if I'm over reacting, but my band started feeling different yesterday so now I'm wondering if it has slipped. I'm not in pain, as a matter of fact I feel the best since surgery. But there is no uncomfortable feeling when I eat. The tight feeling in my chest is gone. Where certain things used to get stuck so easily, now everything goes down easy. I don't know if it is just me and I'm getting used to chewing very well and taking smaller bites, or if it is just time for a fill. It has been five weeks since my last fill which was my first one, and I have one scheduled for Saturday. I see alot of people talking about pain with a slip, so I'm not sure if I am just worrying about nothing or what.

I am a full time phlebotomist and a part time nursing student.

That sounds great, my email is kaylaspiller@yahoo.com

Hey everyone, I'm also getting banded on the 12th at 9:00 a.m. in Cincinnati, Ohio by Dr. Trace Curry. I started my pre-op diet on December 31st and it is the Medifast shakes/soups, and I don't like most of them so I feel like I've been living on sugar free Jello and popsicles. Thank you for posting the lists SlimmerMe, I would have forgot something without those. Anyone else starting to get nervous the closer it gets?

I start my liquid diet either the 30th or the 31st, and I have surgery on January 12th.

I go to my nutrition class on December 30th and get the stuff to start my medifast liquid diet that day. Surgery is scheduled for January 12th. Starting to get nervous!!!
