Lap Band 101

Well, here I am 4 days post-op and have lost 12 pounds. All the liquids I guess, but I am hungry if I go more than 2 hours without eating (drinking) something. Supposed to be clear liquids, but I have had 1/2 cup of sugar free chocolate milk tonight. Having terrific shoulder pain. My surgery was in Mexico. All in all it was a great experience, except the trip home. IF you travel to get banded, be sure you have a direct flight and take an extra day before trying to travel. We left the hospital at 7:00 am and didn't get home until 1:15 am the next day. I was exhausted and my shoulder hurt so bad I was nauseated. :lol:
