Tracy - You will be one of the First "August All-Stars" Best of luck to you.

My surgery was March 24th, my sister-in law just had her surgery yesterday. She is doing well.

HI TRACY! I thought your surgery was this week. Congratulations! Please let us know how you are doing. I appealed Horizon BC BS of NJ regarding the 6 month diet. Sometimes being a pack rat pays off. I had a lot of documentation from a lot of the diets I was on. I also sent them 20 pages of Jenny Craig notes. All total I sent the 47 pages! I must have backed up their fax for an hour. They reversed the decision yesterday. Now I am just trying to get my surgery date. Good luck and best wishes to you as you start your journey to good health,

surgery yesterday suppose to be at 11.30 ended up at 2.00 left surgery center at 4.00... really sore but functioning. My doctor started me with a feel but the water wouldn't go down. so had to take it all out.. He said he might re add it at 2 week appointment.
The nurse told my doctor when I drink I have to stay sitting up for an hour I am dehydrated and drink and fall asleep I can sleep on my right side but I cant stay awake an hour after every sip... I will never rest.
Looking forward to feeling better...

Congratulations, and Welcome to Bandland!!

I didn't get my 1st fill untill 8 weeks after surgery. My Dr said this was the healing time for my tummy and band.

It will get better, just try and keep hydrated. Maybe some warm broth will help.
