pink dahlia 2,513 Posted June 26, 2012 Good luck to all of you ! Tmf said it best "6 months from now you'll love the step you are taking." Oh, how true ! I was banded 6 months ago , and while my surgery and recovery was soooooo easy, the best part is im down 45 lbs !! Down from 225 to 180 ! Im beyond happy ! I just followed my Drs rules 95 % of the time (healthy food, small bites, chew well, and exercise 3x a week minimum ) and the weight has slowly come off. You can do it ! Let us know how it goes, good luck !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wtloss 75 Posted June 26, 2012 Hi everyone Surgery went well today. I also had a hiatal hernia repair. Surgey at 11 am left hospital at 3 pm. Not in pain, but sore. Much better than I expected. I am walking, sipping Water and had 2 suger free Popsicles. Thank you for all the well wishes. This website is great support Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisy0909 2 Posted June 26, 2012 Hi all, I am officially banded. My surgery was yesterday morning at 7:00 and I left the hospital by 9:00 am. I am on nausea meds and pain meds. I feel really sore, but the meds help a lot. Right now, I am taking them about every 4 to 5 hours. I thought the pain would be way worse than this. For all the newbies out there awaiting surgery, don't worry, it is not as bad, pain wise, as in your imagination. Just sip Water and try to walk around every hour or so. It will be behind you before you know it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
