Congratulations. I was just like you...I thought that it was quite painful. I read on here that it wasn't much for others, but I guess I'm a big baby. I'm sending vibes to you for a speedy recovery!!! Good luck throughout your journey.

Congratulations and Good Luck!

My mom and I were banded 02/28 and it went great! My mom said she had hangnails that hurt more that the surgery...I on the other hand woke up to a rough time...I felt good until I got up to walk and then it hit me. I was litterally white as a ghost and could barely talk...ugh! But luckily, each day when I wake up, I'm so much better...it's been 4 days and I just have a dull pain at my port and a bit of left over gas...feeling good! (The pain pills help of course!) My mom said it's because I've never had surgery or kids before, so no point of reference....I think I'm being a baby too!

You're going to do great....just ride it out and follow your Dr's orders!

      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.
