New Years Eve Surgery!!!

[NewLifeRight 9]

I'm so excited to start my 2013 banded!!! I can't think of anything I want for Christmas because I hope that I won't even wear the same size socks in 3 months!! LOL!!

Any words of advice for a new member of the banded life?

Congratulations on your upcoming Band date!

Best advice I could give you is to learn all there is to know about the band. Starting here is a great place. I hung out here for 7mths before my banding and I learned more here than anywhere else.

Also I'd start practicing LB rules, so you can be use to things before surgery.

Try different Protein shakes, so after surgery you have something you like.

Post often and ask all the questions you need answers to.

Looks like you two won't be eating chip n dips when the bowl games start. You will be healing and on liquids.

Best wishes and Keep the Faith.

The straw is one of the much debated subjects here. My Dr said no straws, causes to much air into stomach, but as you'll find all Drs are different.LOL

Does your book talk about "Bandsters Hell"? Never heard that one until I came here.
