The socks are very comfortable.......

I was banded on the 26th too and on the 27th.....around noon...... I sat on the toilet and stayed there until I had a movement and started passing gas.....and from that point on I've been a farting machine.....finally got the left shoulder pain to stop.....I've walked aroung two different malls in the last two days too.....trying to do a minumum of a mile a day.......

I was banded on the 26th also, and the gas was terrible. However I went walking yesterday at the mall and I just started farting and haven't stopped since. It has to be the best feeling in the world at this point. Just walk and sip water and try to lay on your stomach for a nap....that helped move the gas around for me too....

Looking forward to the "With Muscles" stage.....LOL....

I was at the hospital at 6AM and back at home by 1PM. A good doctor must make a great deal of difference because I'm only having gas pains so far. Hopefully those start to go away real soon because they are serious a times. I am pleased to have crossed over into Band Land.....and excited to be on this new leg in my journey.

I'm getting mines at 6:30 AM Tuesday and I'm anxious. I've been ok with the liquid diet and I strayed a couple of times........but I immediately did at least 750 calories worth of cardio and lifted weights to lessen the effect. The hardest part for me will be not being able to lift weights for a month. However with this band, the effect of my working out should be greater with less food intake.....I wish everyone getting their bands in the final days of April the best of luck April Band Buddies....

This diet is a B!tch.....It's driving me crazy......2 and a half more weeks..... Just venting......

There is a men's section under sub-forums that I look at from time to time.....my day is April 26th....and I'm starting my liquid diet tomorrow......

<---In Dallas, but I'm using Dr. Kim in Colleyville....

He's doing mine April 26th.... I was sold after talking to him for 5 minutes.....
