Just got out of surgery



Recommended Posts

I had my conversion procedure yesterday! I was first banded in May 2007 and had a lot of success... 100 lbs loss. Unfortunately 3.5 years later, my band eroded and I had to have it taken out last December. My surgeon and I agreed to wait a few months to all the band area to heal before doing my GPS. We agreed this was the best choice for me, as it's likely a second band would also, but I have really missed the feeling of early satisfaction and level of control over food that my band helped me attain.

I am so excited to be restricted again!

I feel very fortunate to have found a GPS surgeon in my area who could offer me a "replacement" to my band that didn't involve removing any of my parts!

Thanks everybody! I'm feeling pretty good, but I tire easily. Easy to remedy that with naps. I actually felt good enough 1 day post-op to go to our support group. I wish you all could have seen the other group members faces!
