Hi!!! Welcome to the site. Lots of great advice and support here. Hope you love your band as much as i do. Donna

I just had my first fill yesterday and can not tell i had one. I am not too hungry though, so i guess i will make it to the next one. Donna

I am five weeks out and i still get it. My left shoulder too. Heating pad might help. Donna

I took mine off (wet) after about six days. Donna

I have lost 19 pounds so far , but really seem stuck right now. I wish i could stay off the scale. Donna

Good for you!!! My co-workers were having cake at work today, but i said no. Makes you feel good when you do not give in. I do not know how anyone does the slimfast. I hate it. Donna

I am usually tighter in the morning also. Not really sure why. I do eat more at night. Donna

I have not had any complications. Everything went great and i love my band. Donna

Welcome to all the Aug. people. Donna

I went to Mexico and had a great time. Love my band. Donna

I love mine. So glad i did this. Donna

Oh and you should not be throwing up the way you are. Could hurt your band, Maybe you should back off solids or try smaller portions. Donna

I was banded the day after you and i still have the neck and shoulder pain. Sometimes real bad, sometimes not. Wish it would stop. PB means productive burp. ( or throw up) Donna

Do a lot of research. I got my band about a month ago and i am sooooo glad i did. I do not get my first fill till tomorrow, but just having the band in there has really reduced my appetite. I have lost 19 pounds so far. Best of luck. Donna
