Mamab46 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Just a little update, banded on 12/11/09 and feeling really good after a week 1/2. I've lost 8 lbs since the surgery but now that it's a fewdays before Christmas finding very hard to be on the Liquid Diet, just trying to stay strong so not to mess up my band. Can anyone tellme how long it usually takes for the glue to be totally gone? Merry Christmas, I really enjoy reading everyone's different expierences.

Don't worry, just take your shower and be as normal as you can be. Before you know it, it will be gone and you'll be all healed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephC2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Congrats on the weight loss. That is awesome. I am finding it tough these past couple of days too. Hang in there. The holidays will be over before we know it. I can't wait for my glue to fall off too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhawkchick75 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 I can't remember how long it took to get the glue off - 2 weeks maybe? But just wanted to say keep up the great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janellody Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 What glue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowbird Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Some surgeons use glue to close the incisions. Dr Ortiz does. I know my incision scars are small and not that noticeable, and it was nice that there were no stitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
