whaletail 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Had my banding April 16th. Things went well!!! My doctor uses skin glue for closing wounds ( less scarring), and the next morning to my surprise, one incision didn't hold!!! So, Ended up with 6 sutures today!!!! All is well though!!! Alittle sore, but glad it's done. Next step!!!!! Getting to the pureed foods tomorrow!!!!!! :tt1::thumbup::tt2::thumbup:. Best of luck to everyone this April!!!!! Keep us posted!!!!!!

stl_lulu 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Hi.. congrats! I got mine on the 15th. Yesterday was hard for me, i didn't feel good at all. Today has been much better. I am hungry today and very sick of chicken broth, but doc says stay on Clear Liquids for the entire first week. Good luck, maybe since our dates are so close we can stay in touch with the progress!!
