ready2run 17 Posted September 6, 2012 I am officially banded now! I cant wait to get this show on the road! And also to feel better, I have a pretty high pain tolerance. But the gas pains, especially in my back are no joke...ouch!! :/ 3 happy55, kandikay76 and Bubie1916 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Juli Salzman 41 Posted September 6, 2012 It gets better, so stay positive. A couple of days ago, I couldn't imagine ever feeling well again. Today, I feel pretty good. I was banded 8 days ago. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsign36 37 Posted September 7, 2012 It gets better very quickly... I am three weeks today and I wouldn't know I ever had the surgery if I didn't look at the silly lines all over my belly! Best wishes, take it slow and follow the dr's orders.... Hope your recovery is smooth and quick! 2 Juli Salzman and ready2run reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
