Lapband And Embercation

[phiefay 0]

It's been A week and 5 days since my surgery! So excited about it, so far I've lost 10 pounds but I'm scared its going to stop. With the embercation (that's where they tuck the tummy in and staple it) they won't fill the band right away. But with the small tummy I can't hold much, want that extra support of the lapband.

Oh no, it's where they fold your stomach into its self giving the effect of the sleeve just with out the actual cutting of the stomach. Very affective! As for clear liquids no I was on regular liquids the first week now I'm on pureed foods for 3.
