Just jumping in to wish you good luck. Only advice I can give is to follow ALL of your doc's orders....i.e....food choice stages, exercise, etc. I can tell by your post that you are very enthusiastic about your decision to do the lapband.

Hey i'm new here too, I am 12 days post op, I had a couple complications with mine. They found a hyadle hernia that I did not know I had. What a blessing that was, I used to go through 10-20 rolaids a day. Now post op I have not needed even 1. I also had some unexpected swelling and serious bruising and the port incision, but it was not near as bad as it looked. I am starting to get pretty sick of Jello and pudding LOL, but the Doc said 3 weeks full liquids UGHH! but he is the doc and I'm payin him a heck of alot of money for all this so what he say's goes. I go in next monday for my first follow up and i'm real excited since I can already tell I have lost alot by the way my jeans feel. Good luck and don't worry it will work out for you too.:confused:
