Hi All My Name Is Demetria I Am 38 Years Old, 5"10 And 343 Lbs (i Think Cant Even Remember Post Op). I Have Two Daughters Ages 20 And 16 And I Was Banded On Tuesday June 21, 2005. I Am Sore And Anxious. I Wanted To Know From Anyone Out There That Has Been Banded How Are You Doing. How Long Will I Feel Like Someone Is Continuously Squeezing My Insides. I Know That I Am Only To Drink Fluids But Even With Only Fluids I Dont Know If I Am Full Or If I Am Sore. It Feels As Though Someone Or Something Is Sitting On My Insides. I Guess This Is Normal Though.

Also How Have You Managed Your New Restricted Way Of Eating. Are You Satisfied With The Results And Are You Satisfied With Your Eating Now Do You Feel Hungry.? I Am Definitely Looking Forward To The Lapband Meetings. My Procedure Was Performed By Dr. Abkin From Morristown, Nj. Just Need Some Guidance

Congrats on being banded. I will be there on Thursday. I can't wait. Hopefully some of the older bandsters will reply soon. They are so sweet here and always answer's the questions put to them. ;) Good Luck on your journey and keep us updated on how you are doing.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
