Almost back to myself

So, I was banded this past Tuesday... My nurses were great. Today is the first day that the GAS has not taken me over. Walking was what I heard over and over to move the gas. Walking did not help me. I walked until the pains were unbearable.It was hard to explain to my husband that it wasnt the incesions that were hurting me but instead it was the gas that felt like a basketball behind them. I have hard time drinking and today is the first time I have been able to drink a bottle of water in less than a day. I have been so thirsty and I know that my problemwas that I was trying to chug when I should have been sipping. I feel like I just did everything wrong. I am happy with my decision and my decision to go through with it. I know its going to help me change my life,
