I too, was banded 12-26-06. The 1st 2 days were horrible, but by the 3rd day things were much better. I had the hernia repair also. I also had some complications with the anethesia, the liquid Loritab and the compazine. Totally spaced out. I ended up just taking the liquid extra strength Tylenol and that worked much better. My referred gas pains weren't too bad, but by just moving seemed to help.

Here's to a new BEGINNING!!!

RAINY LAKER The preop diet for me was Instant Carnation Breakfast and I mixed it with SF Swiss miss and heated the 2% milk. I started out using skim milk, then 1% and then 2 %. That combination had enough calories to keep me satisfied. (Was what the RN suggested in the beginning) I also, wanted something to chew on, so I bought a jar of dill pickles ( 0 cal) and that really helped. -

Rainy Laker checking in here. Does anyone know how long the lap band procedure has been done - not just in the US but world wide? -
Hi Carole: I'm Rainy Laker and was banded 12-26. Was in the hospital for 1 1/2 days. Now 4th day out and I am feeling pretty good, compared to the first few days. I'm hoping to lose 75 - 100 lbs. I have a friend that was banded in May 06 and has lost 96 lbs. Hope to follow in her footsteps. Good luck on your journey to a new you.
