    April Bandsters?

    I was one of four people who were in post-op with bands. I had the easiest experience of the four. The other people were in so much pain so your experience is unfortunately common. Get up as quickly as possible because it does a great job of getting out the gas. The one thing I didn't expect was the ride home being so painful. Then when I got home I started playing with kids and trying to sllep in my own bed. The first day home was the toughest for me. I don't understand how some people go home the same day. Hang in there because you and me are going to suceed!!! wjm iii

    April Bandsters?

    I was banded this morning at north shore hospital on long island. Immediately after surgery I was in so much pain. That was 9:30 am. I now feel pretty good. I'm sore but not in that much pain. I just urinates and walked around. I just keep reminding myself this is my best chance to lose weight for myself and my family. whether or not you get the surgery if you ate 100 lbs overweight you cannot be that healthy. Good luck to all of my fellow lapbanders!
  3. I am being banded on April 29 and I have a 2 and 3 year old. What was it like chasing after your 2 year old after surgery? Myt wife is 28 weeks pregnant so I hate to have her do the lifting (bath, car etc).

    April Bandsters?

    Very nevrous because I'm being banded on April 29. On September 29, 2008 I was 388 and On October 31 I was 358. I am now 315 and nI am going crazy. I read the books about the worst case scenarios and I am convinced that they will all happen to me. I have two kids aged 3 and 2 and not picking them up for weeks simply isn't possible. I know that this surgery is necessary for me to get down to a reasonable weight and I guess I find that embarressing as well.

    April Bandsters?

    I am being banded on April 29 and I'm very very nervous. mmAt my initial referal I was 388 and at my consultation I was 358. I'm now 319. I feel frsutrated that I know I can't get thin on my own.
