NickyJ 0 Posted March 15, 2009 Just wanted to say hello everyone I found this site the night before my surgery and it was a great comfort because I was feeling so nervous. Have been reading it ever since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickyJ 0 Posted March 17, 2009 I feel pretty good. A bit sore still, but getting better each day. I am so delighted I went ahead with it - my problem has not been losing weight - I've always managed to do that, but it piles back on easily! I have around 106lbs to lose to get back to a normal BMI, Just hope the band will help me stay there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tibbie 0 Posted March 22, 2009 I was banded on March 13th too. I'm doing well. How are you feeling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickyJ 0 Posted March 22, 2009 I'm doing really well too. Amazed at how small the surgical incisions are. They have all healed well, bit of bruising around port site, that's all. I do still feel very tired though, but that might be the reduced diet. I don't feel as much restriction as I thought I would but I suppose there's no fill in the band yet. I do feel some though - it's weird, I feel it a couple of minutes after eating, so have really reign in my usual speed eating! How about you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
