Hello! I am new to this forum and am looking forward to the support I can receive here. I was banded last Thursday, May 8, and feel great! It is exciting to be on the road to a healthier life! :biggrin2:

Hi Susan,

Thanks for the reply! My recovery is going great. I only have a little pain at one of the five surgical sites. I am now in the 'pureed' part of my diet and so far, so good! I am not hungry and become full with each meal and I hope this continues. It is hard to believe that this tool will help me succeed and I am trying to convince my mind that this will not be another failure. It will be easy to follow the strict diet as long as hunger pangs won't drag me down. I am so excited but still am keeping my hopes in check so as to not become disappointed.
