Banded yesterday



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I'm all banded and home from the hospital. My surgery went very well, but when the Dr got in there he found what he described as a very large Hiatal Hernia, so he took care of that while he was in there. I am in a fair amount of pain, But nothing out of the ordinary. I hope the rest of you Banded on the 14th made out well. Looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Hello,

I was also banded yesterday at 7:15 am. It went pretty well. The only pain I have is in my stomach...just feels like sore muscles (thank god for the heating pad). So the hardest thing is getting out of the recliner, other than that I feel pretty good so far. I am not hungry, and I am able to fluids normal with no problems.

Good Luck to you and all the other January Bandsters:biggrin:

I was banded yesterday as well and still in a lot of pain. It is somewhat better than last night and I am sure it will be better tomorrow.

      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.
