It is an emotional rollercoaster....But lighten up on yourself,,,take a deep breath and know you are not the firs to do this,,I was in pre-op ready to go, IV's were in, surgery was to be at 1pm,,,,and I never got in until 225pm,,I almost walked,,,more than once. All will be well,,,you'll get through this, WE are all here for ya....

    March 2007 Bandsters

    Hi all,,,I was banded March 9th,,I had gas pains but not up into the shoulders,,my scars are healing extremly well...Not as much pains as I had excpected in my abs area,,but a bit more than I would have liked. I have been having a tough time sticking to the liquids like I should,,,but hanging tough,,,,I'm looking forward to the stage 2,,,where I can have the soups,,,or mashed potato's,,,,,,

    I'm doing great, feeling awsome, I started at 380 lbs, and weighed in at 356 lbs this morning! I won't be going back to work for maybe another 5 weeks, due to lifting restrictions at my job, the gear I wear ,and carry 12 hrs a day weighs itself almost 60lbs,,,so that is whats slowing me down there,,,,no such thing as light duty in my line of work,,so I just wait it out. I had a check up with my personal care phys. today,,lol, I think he is much more excited about me being banded than I am! He has gotten a new program for his laptop (he uses this for everyone now instead of files!!!) That will graph,and track my weight loss,,of course 2 yrs ago he needed to get a new scale so I could be weighed,,,emberassingly enough, it didn't go high enough:( ,, he was soooo interested in my scars,,and was looking for my port,,it was really funny,,,almost like a kid with a new toy!! Apearently he has never had a banded patient before,,I would guess:D . My best hopes and wishes to everyone,,just starting your journey,,and the veterans well into theirs!

    Congratulations on the surgery dates folks! And thank you all for all the support. I feel fantastic! I don't know why, not at all what I expected, maybe he didn't "inflate me with the gas?" Nothing is as bad as I had thought. Although the surgery took a bit longer than he had expected, due to thick ab fat. I am so happy!!! My Dear Wifw has been a dream through all this,,but alas, her driving could have been betterlast night,,lol,,or maaaayyyyybe it was just the roads:D ,, a bit bumpy and all. Well back to bed, it is only 3AM,,,I got up for meds, and a "clot walk",,,,, Hugs ,,,
