Banded on Friday 9/7



Recommended Posts

EL1 - I have also heard that the milicon drops for babies is good for adults too! My cousin used that instead of the gas x or the mylanta. Hopefully that will give you some relief!

My sister and I were banded 9/14 so only 4 days out, but we feel kinda "yucky"! We just don't feel good when we eat or drink anything! (and we are taking it slowly). The best I feel is when I'm asleep! Ha! Of course I get a lower backache then I guess I lay different to compensate for the stomach pain. When will I feel good again?

I'm feeling OK...I had surgery the same day as you and your sister. I'm still in pain, my port incision hurts the most. I try to get up and walk, walk, walk as much as I can. Even if it's up and down the rows here at school (I'm a teacher).

I'm doing okay with drinking my liquids...not sure how to help you with that! Maybe someone else has some tips :D

I probably should have taken an extra day off...but I wanted to be here for the kids...they started our State Testing today.

I'm also ready to get rid of this weight...I've been waiting since March for this day! I figure, the faster I recover, the faster I'll be able to do things!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
