HI!! I live in Portland and I'm going to be banded by either Dr.Halpin or Dr.Patterson at Good Sam. How are you doing so Far? Is there any advice you can give to help me along this road to a new and healthier me?
I was banded last week (5/7/09). I did a 35 minute work out on my elliptical on Saturday 5/9 and everything felt okay. Since then I have worked out 2 more times (increased the intensity each time) and have not had any pain or complications.
I really think it is up to the person. I know of a few people who were banded and did not do any activity for over a month. Start off slowly and see how you do.
