1 whole week

I am so excited that I have had my new band for 1 whole week. I can't say I feel any different, just a whole lotta pain if i eat anything in my left shoulder. The stomach pain is 90% gone, just slight tenderness at port site. I still can't burp. wondering why???????

I have my 1st postop appointment tomorrow. And of course i know i have water weight from that whole "woman" experience known to us all.

I would like to atleast have lost a few pounds.

hi, my one week was yesterday, so far so good, just getting a little hard with the liquids, but I follow up with the dr. on friday. Hope you have a good md follow up

I am winding up day 5. It is going well but I am getting bored. The gas pains in the shoulder area are just starting to occur and they are no fun. Hopefully they will not last long. How did your visit go? Mine is Friday morning.

the steri strips came off today and only slight bruising at the site. She told me the no burping was normal and to stay hydrated. The shoulder pain was from all the air instilled into my stomach........i want it gone. Hope evryone else is doing much better than me.
