Nadine, I couldn't wait to see how you handled your surgery. I wanted to skip ahead and see but all the posts were interesting. I am glad you did well. I had a band with plication on 10/9/12. I didn't think they would release me from the hospital because I couldn't drink what they suggested I should. I also had a hiatal huernia repair. Once I was home it was great! I was more comfortable and was able to drink most of what they suggested and in the first 5 days lost 8 lbs. My dr puts us on stages of diets and I am getting ready for stage 3 on tuesday. I have an appt with him on Thursday and I cannot "weight" to see the numbers! I was talking to my son this morning and we both realized my ankles are thinner! I will enjoy following your journey. Best of luck to you!

Thank you!!! Yes it was way better than I thought it would be. Don't get me wrong I'm sore as heck. But it's all worth it in the end. Glad to see your doing good. Keep us updated.

Yes I had my 1st fill on Oct 9th...I have 5cc in my band....I was nervous because I didn't know what to expect but it was a peice of cake...

Good to hear...keep me posted. Oh how is it to eat after a fill? Was it easy or hard for you?

I'm doing pretty good. I only have 2.5cc in my band. I was really scared at first to get filled. Now I don't have any restrictions. I lost 27 pounds so far. How are you doing?
