I have another question. Does everyone have the weird feeling right in the middle of their stomach and sometimes it's hard to take a deep breath? I'm assuming it's where the band is but not sure. Just want to make sure everyone has this issue and will it go away?

[mandagay 93]

I have that too but it's much worse when I lie down

[newme2012 31]

SGP78- I also have that feeling once in a while. Its almost like I have to burp then it gets stuck. Weird...

good luck everyone with their pre op diet. fortunately i dont have to worry about one. im going to take barley green and ACA powder to build up my immune system etc etc. started already on the barley green. about to do the ACA powder today as well.

i will be cutting right back on my meals as well... the day before surgery i will just have Soups. thats my pre op plan, not my drs. he doesnt require a plan he says.

Well only 2 more day before I am banded. The doctor I have does not require a pre-op diet. Just a clear liquid diet the day before surgery. I have been on this journey since August of last year, jumping through all kinds of hoops for the insurance.

Monday morning can't come soon enough for me to start my new journey. Good luck to all March Banders.

LisaNj , Yvonne, Dee, I got banded today!

I've already vomitted the chicken broth I had ... No bueno. Now I'm having the worst tightness in my chest . Its annoyIng to breathe and talk. I'm making some little tiny burps but no big relief there.

My incision bandages are pretty small so I'm guess the scars may be small too (fingers crossed). How are you guys doing??
