I'm Official I Have a Band!



Recommended Posts

Woo Hoo! Just sitting in recovery waiting to go home. I have my band and I feel great - nothing to stress about. I just got up and about and walked the halls and felt great.

My tummy is a bit sore - I have six incisions with little bandages on them. I took some before pics last night - I told my daughter one last time we have to get some pictures, I usually shy away from having my picture taken, but we did it. I will try to get them posted.

The surgery was pretty quick the only thing that was bothersome was how dry my mouth was and I had to wait to get my sips of Water. The pain killers are fogging my brain, so disregard the random babbling.

Good luck and don't stress to the rest of the August All-Stars! We are off on a great journey!:)

I became a citizen of Bandland today as well. Feels good to get it over with. It will be tomorrow before I go home but it's for the best since I have a 4 hour ride home. I am not looking forward to that one. Anyway, congrats to you and all the other 5thsters.

Thanks for all of the well wishes! I appreciate all of the support.

I actually had my husbands computer while I was sitting and waiting to go home. I had to stay longer in recovery, so I was bored and got to play on the computer. We have dialup at home :), so the wireless is always a treat!:)

Best wishes to all that were banded today!

Good luck and safe surgery to everyone that goes in tomorrow!

The August All Stars are on their way!

      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.
