I'm banded!!!! Made it through surgery like a champ- just lots is soreness. Somehow have no gas pains-thank goodness! Darn that belly button incision gets to me when getting up I think from my belly weight :/ Any suggestions on ways to get up from bed? Thanks!!!

Yippee! For me the walking really, really helped -- I compared the discomfort to something I really hate: dentistry. To this day I'd rather have LB surgery than a crown, lol. And now I'm 70+ pounds thinner -- talk about worth it! (One crown, one cavity, one LapBand, zero gallbladder, and, oh, a hernia repair).

Congrats ! I held a pillow against my stomach and laid on my side and kind of rolled off the bed until it felt better.

Thanks for the advice! It's been 3 days..still gave soreness but nothing remotely close to the day after. I still need help doing things and getting in and out of bed is a chore to say the least! Now I just feel like I'm starving 24/7, horrible headache, am over the broth and jello! Moist and mushy can't come soon enough-Uggghhhhh
