The surgery went well last thing I remember before I was knocked out was my surgeon and my anesthesiologist were arguing over what type of music to play Klove my choice or rock the anesthesiologist choice I never found out till recovery they play Christmas music lol I don't even remember being drowsy. They said I did really well with it and it took the minimum time 45 mins they had a little scare when I woke up I couldn't swallow and it turned out was from the numbing solution they used for the breathing tube. Went away fairly fast. We had I problem because I was kicked out before I was ready my surgeon is not happy about that and looking into that. So now I'm home and sore and the gas the injected for the surgery really hurts so I'm going to take the Lortab elixir they gave me a conk out for a while.

Yey..the journey begins here. I was banded 10 days ago. It's tough to begin with but it does get easier :-)

Princess Leah, hope you're doing well! I'm on day 16 so we are all together on this journey. Best wishes to you!

Welcome! Walking and GasX are lifesavers the first couple of days, for gas/shoulder pains.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
