Just found out how much i have in my band!

[gailm]

Well being a nosey Parker I opened my
Doctors letter from the hospital
It says I have a 10ml small band
With 4ml fill already in!
Why couldn't a nurse tell me when I asked
Her!
She said they will be something in it
Anyway pleased I've got 4 ml in already and got a fill on 28 July

A nice little starter for you, you should reach restriction real soon, take it easy xx

this is a advantage as Julie says, reaching restriction should be a little easier for you than those that have a empty band for the 1st 6 weeks, you should even have some restriction now as 4 ml is a good amount to have put in during the op, i only ever went to 5.5ml with a 9ml band and it was more than enough for me, good luck i hope all goes well x

thats great news glad things ar going along ok for you.

a week post op is a little early for anything such as gym or swim but you could try a bit of walking each day and build up from there, as for swimming its not really advisable untill week 6 so the scars can heal as swimming with new scars maks them prone to infection from all the germs in a public pool.
