newbie

Had my Lapband surgery yesterday...All is well so far. Pain is manageable, liquids going down and staying down. Some burping (which hurts!!0 but other than that I consider myself doing GREAT. Hope to be able to keep up with everyone's journeys!!

 Welcome to the wonderful world of banding.  I actually do not live that far from you.  I live in Enterprise.  

Hang in there and you are correct.  You ARE doing great.  

In case you do not know--we are having an event in New Orleans September 9th and 10th.  You would LOVE IT.

Welcome to the board and to the loser's bench!

Welcome to the board! I'm not quite 3 years out from my banding. If you're burping some try slow down and take smaller sips (burping usually means you're getting too much air).

Keep getting in liquids and don't freak when you go to mushies/solids that you hit a stall - it's very common.

Good luck on your journey!
