Loprofyl 0 Posted February 4, 2008 Tomorrow I will join the LOSER club. I am getting nervous and excited at the same time. I am looking forward to my new life! I am taking several before shots and once I am banded, I will do after shots later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteveInKansas 0 Posted February 4, 2008 I was just reminded over on the "Biker" side that I'll be banded on FAT TUESDAY. Maybe someone was trying to tell me something??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loprofyl 0 Posted February 5, 2008 Well I am officially a BANDSTER. The procedure wasn't not bad at all. I am quite sore, but really haven't have an appetite yet. I ate four teaspoons of SF Jello and stuffed like a Thanksgiving Turkey. The key is to continue to walk and keep your lungs free by using the inspirametor.

mediummike 0 Posted February 5, 2008 I'm going in a week from tomorrow and am also excited / nervous. Glad to hear it all went well wasn't too bad... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loprofyl 0 Posted February 5, 2008 I usually lie on my back because of the C-PAP machine. After surgery I really didn't have the appetite to each much; for example I ate 3 teaspoon of Jello and I was full. The best thing is walking! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loprofyl 0 Posted February 5, 2008 That's sounds great--to be a support for each other. Yes I was excited and nervous, but I had God on my side, and with Him everything is possible. Good Luck on your surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
