Hi 4cc bandsters, It's great to hear of your successes. I am 5 days post-op with a 9.75 cm/4cc band. My daughter pre-op wanted me to have one of the bigger bands(10cc or 14cc). I figured the older style worked or so many wouldn't of had it. And if it takes less fills to lose the weight, all the better. But her comments made me worry a little. You all have put my mine to rest. Go bandsters!

Hi SandiegoKate All went well on my surgery. Flew into SanDiego, then had Dr. Kuri band me the next day. How you doing today? MaggieGT

Hello all August Bandits, I hope all are doing well on this recovery period. I am on day 4 and had Jello, apple juice, tea and Water on 2nd and 3rd day. Today I had 1 cup cream of wheat and coffee for Breakfast and a cup broth for lunch. I feel good and no desire for more than that. Drinking water in between. I start a college class in a few minutes, but it's online so no worries. :w00t: Life is good ! How's everyone doing???

Hello fellow August Bandsters, I'm the 25th also. I'm very excited. I hope for easy recovery for us all! I'm glad we all can share this good journey together. Maggie

Thank you for all the info. I'm getting calm about my decision to do this. I have had this weight for 20 years. Gained it with my third child. I have lost 20 to 60 pounds 10 times in that period. I am so excited to know that this time is the last time I will have to lose it:tongue:. I am going enjoy even more my next 30 years.:thumbup:

Fill Centers of America are 349 the first visit and 165 after that.

Sarahstarjd, Thank you for the info. I will call them today. Was the plane ride back hard? I'm a little worried about that. How is your banding going 2.5 months along? Maggie

Hi, i'm in tulsa who did you get to do fills? My date is 8/25/09

My Date is August 25th. My doctor didn't give me a preop diet. What is your Pre-op Diet? I'm just doing the post-op diet to see if I can do it! Also setting up my kitchen with food scale, small bowl and plate, measuring spoon and cup to eat the correct portions. The hardest things so far are giving up my Advil(i have Gout) and not drinking while eating. :huh2:Thanks MaggieGT
