cingee72 15 Posted September 22, 2013 Well I am banded. I got it put in yesterday at 730 a.m. and slept till 7am this morning. Feeling pretty good although it does feel like I just did 2.75 million situps. No gas pains yet and I hope they stay away. I hope for my sake that this is as bad as it gets so I can have a good 2 week vacation from work. Anyone else on here from the Spring /Hill FL area? Hi, I'm from Valrico, fl..(Brandon area) how are you feeling? May I ask who was your surgeon? I wish you much success and a speedy recovery... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scfredjr 6 Posted September 23, 2013 Sorry it took me so long to reply, but I have been catching up on my sleep and taking this rare opportunity to veg out. My doctor is DR Krish out of Zephyr Hills. day 3 post op and I have no pain other than my stitches. No gas pains (thank god). I haven't lost any weight yet but I am sure that's to come. Have a good day 1 cingee72 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LapbandLo 294 Posted September 23, 2013 Today is my post op appointment (6 days since surgery) and I know the doctor scales aren't ever the same as the ones I have at home so I decided to weigh in my bathroom on mine. 13lbs!!!! Holy crap!!! Motivation right there! I know weight loss will slow down eventually, but for now I have my party hat on! 4 PuraVida37, NewMeDebbie, Splickety1125 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get banded on Friday, 9/27. The clock is ticking but to keep me occupied I have started a blog like no other out there. I plan to tell all the dirty details.... I have been looking all over for more information about the actual details and couldn't find much so i've started my own. Maybe it will help someone else later on...

annanyc 33 Posted September 23, 2013 My surgery is Wednesday. I think I've been in denial. Haven't wanted to think about things at all lately, and so much to do. Exciting. But also terrifying. Wish me luck. Luck and calmness. I'm doin' just fine, but I am on the edge of freaking out just a little. I've never had surgery before. It's a big deal. (But welcome, good, etc. etc.) Just... eep. Eeep and Calm. 3 Splickety1125, NewMeDebbie and cingee72 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
