Good luck with the new you. Just remember to follow your doctor/dietitians rules. Every one has their own. Make sure you have a heating pad to help with the pain from the gas they put into you. The heating pad helps alot. The pain lasts a few days. I loved having sf Popsicles. I still have them all the time.Good luck and ask any questions you want , we are all here to try and help you.

Wishing you the best of luck, alot happens on that big day. Just listen good and follow instructions. And I agree with the heating pad, it was by savior. I am 17 days post op and feel great! lots of energy, and motivation.

Keep us posted with your updates and stay calm, you made a long journey to get to this point, and it will be worth it.

I hope you are doing well! I was banded Jan 29th at St. James in Chicago Heights & live in Homewood! Maybe we can chat on a more personal level since u are close in distance to me. Don't know many people around who are banded! Hope to hear about all your success!
