Hi all,

I was banded on 12/5 and the post op went well for me. I took the pain meds couple of times the first 2 days and then I didn't need. Good luck to all the upcoming Dec Bandsters!!

Hey Kath, that is awesome. I am glad things went well without any issues and you are not in pain. We will take this journey together and get through it.

welcome to the club and 12/20/08 will be my third bandiversary. Hope you all enjoy the ride and remember that everybody is different and this is a trial and error journey with the band. I still have days that sometimes chicken will go down and sometimes it will not. I love my band and it literally has saved my life. Good luck to all joining this adventure and enjoy the ride!

banded Dec 7th here. Ive lost 10 pounds in 1 wk since surgery. Very happy about that. was very excited to eat applesauce yesterday. I didnt have any of the pain that alot of the people experience. I have only had some soreness around my incision area so I havent started doing any long distance walking. Just around the house. Im going to try to gym today and see if I can get 2 miles in. Good luck ! Its a new life and you are going to love it!

Hello everyone, can I join up too? I was banded on 12/6 and am just starting to feel myself. Between the preop diet and the diet post op I felt weak as a kitten. And really hungry. But today I really am feeling much better. Last night I watched the biggest loser finale- wow- what motivation! I am still on full liquids and Proteins shakes- looking forward to chewing on something next week!
