Hi Everyone. Just wanted to say I'm finally up to posting again. Had surgery on Wed May 17, actually had a tubal along with the lap band. Nurses said I had a "double whammy". Woohoo.. It's finally over. I'm doing great. Only problem is acid reflux or I think that is what it is. I'm on clear liquids for a week then full liquids for 2 weeks, then on to mushies. I've not been hungry at all. Have to make myself drink the broth. Any suggestions on the acid reflux, is this normal? Thanks for all the helpful advice. Good luck to all the bandsters getting banded tomorrow. God Bless you all.. Michelle :clap2: :clap2:
