6 months and down 45 pounds. Lost 35 first two months. Go figure.. have not lost in a few months...

This posting is kinda confusing since they changed it..

I went back and forth for years. Then I hit 40 and wished I did it when I was 35. I have been banded for 6 months and it was the best thing I could have done. Good luck

I also think you should got the emergency room.. Good luck..

So true all the bad stuff slides right down. But the baked chickenn and vegies get stuck. Go figure.. LOL

I came home to a husband and four kids. But I had gotten my pain meds early and stocked up the house for myself. My husband did drive the kids to school for a few days. I did need a ride home from the hospital. but besides that I was on my own. I did have a little hard time getting out of my bed. at night but I would put pressure on my incisions and just kind of roll over. it was all fine. i thil you will be ok on your own. just prepare for the next 3 or 4 days with liquids jello and don't forget your pain medication. Take it as prescribed. My Aunt is a nurse. She has always told me to take it even if I don' feel I need it so the pain cycle won't start. So good luck. You will love the band. I have lost almost 40 pounds in 3 months. I love it..

Hi. my insurance made me go see my primary care doctor for 6 months . I never lost a pound. And my insurance still covered me. Good luck
