I'm glad I saw it - It makes me feel better about the fact that I can eat alot b/c I haven't been filled yet. When you see the band w/ no fill it doesn't look like it would restrict much.

Thanks for the warning. I got halfway there then chickened out.

Karen,

Thank you so much for that link. I had tried to get it before, but for some reason it wouldn't play. Being a nurse, I really enjoyed the mechanics of it all. I was amazed at how small the stomach pouch is! Amazing!

I watched it about a week before my surgery. I thought it was great! My teenager on the other hand was like Gross.

I only got about 10 min. of it and it quit. Not sure what is wrong.

Things sure differ from state to state. I've heard several people on here say they were eating right up until the day of their surgery. My daughter who had gastric bypass (sure you all know that by now) was eating steak and lobster the night before her surgery till she was so full she couldn't walk. I don't understand why the doctor's differ so much. How hard can the liver be to find if people can eat up till the day of surgery and some can't have food for 2 weeks before...only liquids. I wish I'd found the dr. that lets me eat up until the surgery. How lucky can you be!!

Twice I tried it, and twice it cut off before the surgery even started. Can't understand why, but perhaps ignorance is bliss when you haven't had the surgery yet.
