I was banded yesterday

My husband dropped me off at 11:15 yesterday and left with the kids. I had a little crying jab in the lobby but it passed quickly. They moved me a long really fast- changed into gown by 11:30. They couldn't find a vein for the IV so I got pocked about six times until someone could find one. Went into surgery and don't remember falling alseep. Woke up with a decent amount of pain but they gave me some medication. My husband picked me back up at 3pm. All and all a fine experience. Today the pain is mostly around the port area. But not unmaneable. It is hard to find a comfortable spot to sit. Getting in and out of bed is getting easier and easier. Can't wait to feel even better. Decided to not weigh myself until next Friday.

I was banded yesterday as well. I had to stay overnight because I have sleep apnea.

The more I get up and move around the better. Still sore but doing well.

I was banded yesterday as well. I have some gas/bloating but all things considered my energy level is pretty high.

I'm certainly not hungry!! I've noticed I get colder easier, I've heard of this happening but wasn't expecting it so soon. Port area is sore, but bloating is my major annoyance for now.

My surgery was at 7:30am and I was home by noon and resting in my own bed.

Glad it's over and excited about taking this journey with you all.
