I'm in Dubai. after 2 yeas of thinking finally had it done on sat july 16th (5 days) ago, still in pain and sore but was dischaged today!

hi, ive been reading posts here for the pat month and im glad i joined i dont feel alone anymore. ive made my decision and going to see the doc this week to book my surgery appointment. im anxious nervous but want to change my life for ever. snowy

Thanks everyone for your supportive and informative replys. I've booked my doctors appointment for Tuesday adn im hoping my insurance will cover the cosots of the lap band. it will cost me 8000 USD which i can not affod at the moment. i have decided to go with the same doctor that my freind has and she had it done over a year ago. he is known as the best where i live. ive already started chewing chewing chewing and trying to eat smaller poritions and bites but the drinking and eating being one hour apart is hard at meal times. excersice i walk alot during the day but im hoping my weight loss will help me get more motivated with proper excercise. as is i just dont see the light at the end of the tunnel. my question to every one here is : are the fills painful? did you have much pain when you woke up after surgery? do you vomit after eating and if yes why? did you have to eat liquids for one month or one week? thanks Snowy
