I was banded on 4/24/12 and I have 4 small ones and one bigger one that's about 1 to 1 1/2 inches. The little ones don't bother me

But the bigger one hurts quite a bit still.

I am not sure if what I see is the lap band itself or the port thru my skin..the bump of it and can feel an object..is this supposed to be like that or an I still just swollen..banded 5/16/12 ? My stitches just came out so I am not sure what is normal ..had it done in Mexico so I have no one local to call. Do have a scheduled fill at a bariatric surgical center on the 18th of June but not sure they will take me as a patient..

I have 4 small ones and one large (~2 inches). Plus I have 4 other scars on my abdomen from having my gallbladder removed the year before.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.

        I'm so sorry. I lost my pup (Mr. Bitters - a chocolate Pomeranian) 2 years ago and it still makes me tear up. He was my everything - my constant companion. I understand. Do the best you can to get back on track.
