Laurie I was also banded on the 16th, How are you doing? I feel great. It only hurts now when i bend the wrong way or sit for too long. When do you get your first fill? I have to wait until Oct 1st. I am very carefull what I eat, but I feel like I have no restriction, but after what we went thru don't want to screw it up -

Hey, did you get banded August 16th? If you did so did I and also started my pre op diet on the 2nd - let me know how you are doing?

how did they know your port was faulty? did you have to have another surgery?

Hi, don't worry, I was banded on the 16th and I did not realize how much pain I would be in, but I have to say by wednesday this week I was really feeling better, just stay positive. I was up 5 pds after the surgery but it did come off the begining of this week. In a few days the worst will be over

wow 31 pds, how long were u on preop? I only lost 12 for my two wk preop, how are you feeling? I was banded on the 16th so a wk and 1/2 ago, finally feeling better but I still have pain at the port site, when I sneeze and when i get up and down. Still don't feel normal yet. I took one wk off from work and that may not have been enough, r u still in pain?

Hello, I was banded on the 16th and doing well, def a challenge last wk with pain/gas and this wk just pain, but I am back at work taking it day by day....what is wierd is the concept of eating something and then being full, how strange is that.

I found you on this site when I was looking up Dr Randall not sure If you even read these posts anymore, just curious did you have your surgery with Dr Randall? I had mine on the 16th of August - how are you doing this far out? I am doing ok - more pain then I thought but doing great!

Hi I was banded on the 16 today on the scale I weigh the same as I did on Monday when I went in for the surgery, I have not lost one pd and still on liquids - when I left the hosp I was up 5 but now back to where I started I am hoping to jump on the scale and be down a bunch - kind of a bummer way to start- how r u feeling - I am still in pain at the port site but all in all on the mend. I was sick in the hospital but that only lasted 24 hours thank god , that was the worst.

Hi Nancy, I sent you an email

Hi - I had to wait 9 months for my insurance to go thru so I was so excited too. You are probably starting your pre op soon - the weight just melts off it is amazing. I had my surgery on the 16th - it went fine, feel freeto email me juliemcummins@comcast.net.

I am going to email nancy here is my email and we can keep in touch that way looking forward to our journey juliemcummins@comcast.net
