I was banded on Monday also, and today started with the gas pain in the left shoulder. SO uncomfortable, and haven't found any relief yet. I'm right there with you...

I'm new to this and thought I was pretty comp savvy, but I can't get the pic that I uploaded to my profile to show up on my avatar??? ( I think that's the word for it)

I am SO looking forward to Fri. when I can start adding creamy soups. I am so sick of clear liquids. I want to actually taste something. Surprisingly, I have found some satisfaction in cooking for my family. Just standing over the stove and smelling everything cook... :shades_smile:

Tight and miserable, yes! But I am so excited to see that I've already lost 6 lbs. and whereas before I might be worried that I'd just gain the 6 lbs. right back, I know that this time those 6 lbs. are gone for good. I can't wait to keep losing! I found that yesterday I was really missing food. I'm not hungry whatsoever. I just miss chewing and the taste of food. These next two weeks will be interesting, to say the least.
