Haven't been here in a while because I decided not to get the surgery done but with in the last month have been contemplating it again. Hopefully I will get clarity soon!

Where have u been? Haven't heard from u. Well I had my surgery aug 10 and it was the easiest surgery I ever had very little pain after the first day. How is your weight loss coming? Holla back at me.

Really, I hope all is going well with that. If you have any questions just let me know.

Thank you all for your responses. This has been a huge help!

I'm well and you?! Just anxiously trying to get the ball rolling with being banded!

Hey, how are you doing. Just stopped by to say hello. How are things going with you?
-
Thanks deedee! I have thought about doing this for the past year now and am eager to start this process. How did you do with the liquid and pured diet? I just hope I can get approved quickly!

Hey Jerzeegurl!!!! I am an ATLalien!! We have all contemplated those same thoughts in our minds. Believe me it's part of the process. I had surgery on 7/8 and haven't had a fill yet. But I have restrictions without the fill. Pre-Surgery I could eat a 10pc wings and fries and drink a 16oz sweet tea. Now without a fill I can only eat half of what I buy. I know I not suppose to eat wings at all however I tried it and could only get down 5 with a few fries. I went to a cafe yesterday and ordered steamed broccoli baked chicken and rice. I couldn't eat any of it. I only took bites - mind you this is without restrictions- no fill...... Count on not being able to eat even half of a meal.... and I love it.

Congratulations! How long was you're approval process? I am in the beginning stages and would like to know how long it will take. I am going to the orientation on Aug 12th. What are the steps that follow and is it true that insurance companies make you wait 6 months?

What is the difference between Realize Band and Lap Band? Does one have better or quicker results than the other?

This is me now....but watch out for what's to come!

Well Im really concerned with the transition with eating habits. From what I've seen, you go from a liquid diet to pureed. I am an extemely picky eater! Also what is the diet like once you are on solid foods again. In addition to that I dont have any children and want to know if the band will affect that in the future?
Also what are fills that I see people talking about?
