Hi there, just looking to talk to people who have had the lap band put in and what their experiences are/were like. Both good and bad. I want to know all the stuff that doctors don't necessarily tell you. I'd like info from real people who've done weither it's good or bad.

Thanks all for the congrats and the invite.

I was sore at first, but am feeling better now, and still convinced that I did the right thing.

Overall not a bad experience so far, except for the C02 they pump into you. Now there was some not fun pain, but it has just about dissipated.

And where would that thread be? I've looked but there is a lot of threads to look through.
