Bunny Bandsters - April '09, MASTER THREAD #1
dminson replied to Band_Groupie's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hey everyone. I was banded Wednesday and I am on the road to recovery....woo hoo. I stayed overnight in the hospital and came home late Thursday night. My first night home was rough but I started feeling better yesterday afternoon. I am having trouble getting all the liquids i'm suppose to have in a days time, especially the protein drinks, they make me nauseated. Well talk to you all soon. Keep up the good work everyone. -

Good morning everyone. Just wanted to wish the best of luck to all the bandsters today. My surgery is tomorrow. I have been on clear liquids for 3 days and much to my surprise, it hasn't been bad at all. I will check in with you all on Thursday when I get home from the hospital. Keep up the good work!!!:crying: -

I'm from Missouri, about 65 miles south of St. Louis. I completed all my testing Feb. 9. All the insurance needs now is medical clearance from my primary doc which I go to him on Thursday. So that being said hopefully within the next month I will have my surgery.
