11 Days Post Lap Band Surgery And Feeling Pretty Good

[GermaineF 25]

Just wanted to check in, feeling so much better today, can't wait to go to the dr tomorrow for my post op. I'm hoping he tells me i can have soft foods. I'm so sick of Protein Shakes I could kick someone. i've been trying to fill my port but i can't seem to find it, i'm beginning to wonder if dr really did put the band in..lol..I will come back tomorrow to post my weight loss. I hope that all my Dec bandsters are doing well...

Hey I am glad to hear from someone going throught the same things. I am on day 6 and really tired of broth and Protein Shakes and juice. It stinks watching my family eat and eat and eat. I see the dr Thursday and I am hoping for pureed food maybe a little yougurt, cream of wheat or pureed anything. i don't even know which side my port is on. I 4 cuts about 1 inch long and one big one about 2 inches long. You made it to day 11 so congrats!

My consultation is January 6. I've been thinking about this for a year. My previous insurance would not cover it, but after a move and a new job, my current insurance will. I'm so excited and so proud of all of you who have gone through the process. I am almost afraid to think it might actually happen. Whoo Hoo! Best of luck to you in 2012. I am thinking about you and praying for you

Hi, I'm 8 days post op. A lot less sore than I was. Today I'm suffering with painful-extreme gas in my chest area. OMG, please tell me there's a cure.

No, the chewable tablets worked awesome for me!
