I was banded two days ago. Total to lose from first visit to Dr was 70. As of today, I have lost 13 with the pre-op and post-op diets. Port pain has been intense first two nights, but today is much better (72 hours after surgery). Very concerned about the huge lump in my stomach from the port. Dr used low profile port, but that is a huge lump all the same.

Doc said with starting BMI of 38, I do not have as much abdominal fat as others, so expect to always feel and probably see the port.

Can anybody help me with their experience starting with a lower BMI as I did?
