suzie-ny 0 Posted September 5, 2008 I get banded the 18th of Sept. Have started the medifast on 9/1. Mon thru Thurs I lost 9 lbs. I'm getting thru with the shakes only. Sometimes it bothers me to look at or smell food but I am holding up. Only thing left is 8th or my primary dr again and cardio dr on Wed along with another weigh-in. All else is done. They want me to have someone over age 18 home with me the first night after banding. Anyone have any problems during this time? I have 2 teenage sons at home. I may ask my friend who is going to drive me to and from if she can stay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
