Hey Guys!
So I've made the decision to have a band fitted at a BMI of 34 as I'm tired of losing weight and gaining it back with more on top.
I know it's not going to be easy but I'm determined to make it work.
I'm scheduled to have it done in March 2017 so will keep you updated as it goes along.

Im looking forward to getting the op out the way and carrying on with my healthy lifestyle. I now go to the gym 3x a week in preparation for when I'm banded.
Will update. X

I'm Banded. 1Day Post Op
So I got banded yesterday, the nurses were excellent but I just can't get comfortable.
What I'd advise is to expect pain/discomfort and my pain threshold is quite high I like to think. After coming out of surgery my stomach was all swollen and bloated.
I'd also strongly advise staying over in the hospital as you'll need to.
Unfortunately I can't get comfortable and no painkillers seem to help. I'm just hoping this pain/discomfort goes away asap.

Hi there how are you doing made the decision to have the lap band done 10 July 2017. It's been very uncomfortable especially the pain and more discomfort on the left upper and lower side.....
Let's hope it settles in the next few days. How has your progress been?
