I am now 5 1/2 months post op and feeling great. I have had 3 fills and now have 7cc in my 11cc band. Food gets stuck frequesntly and it is uncomfortable but I am learning to deal with it. I will be going back to the OCC next week for my fourth and hopefully final fill. I want to lose another 35 pounds and then I will finally be happy!
I have done the research and have decided to GO FOR the band! I am so excited. I wish I could do it now but I need to get a passport. I figure I will be ready in January My husband wants me to take another nurse with me in case I need a "PATIENT ADVOCATE". Is anyone else going to do it in January?
I am a 49 year old nurse who is thinking about getting a lap band. My husband has already given me the go-ahead and now I am researching everything. I was all set to make an appointment with OCC until I started reading about "PB and sliming" and started getting grossed out. I am not sure what these terms really mean and I hope someone will tell me. I hate throwing up more than anything in the world and from what I am reading, it appears that it will be a way of life. I hope someone can tell m
I'm safely back home and I feel great! My experience at OCC was nothing short of wonderful. No pain. just gas. I'm starting to
get hungry now but I am committed to following the rules. I met 4 great women and I hope we can keep in touch. If anyone wants
to learn more about my experience just ask me. It was GREAT!!!
