Yesterday I got banded and I must say I was so scared and nervous and it was all for nothing. My doctor was great, my surgery was less than an hour. Im still in the hospital but Im going home today. I sooo thankful to everyone who encouraged me on this site. If it had not been for you guys Im sure i would have backed out. My bp is a little high but I think its because of the gas pain in my chest. Its better and passing since I started walking. This is one of the bestthings I could have done for myself. You guys continue to encourage others as it does make an incredible difference....it did for me. I will be an encourager of others also.....thx and God Bless

Hi Cece - and Congrats! I hope you have little to no gas like I did, just walk, walk, walk! Take tiny sips and pace yourself. Give yourself time to heal, and don't pu**** Follow your doc's orders and you'll be fine!

Happy Healing!
