Don't be so hard on yourself. You need to focus on the positive aspects of your renewed energy and loose clothes. We are all experts at beating up on ourselves and stress eating. Don't fall back into old habits and keep the faith! 60 pounds is AWESOME!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!

I have lost 10#s since being banded a week ago! I'm so excited about starting the journey to good health!

I'm so glad to hear of your success! Dr. Enochs did my band on 8/8 and I go back to work on Thursday...hopefully it won't be too bad. I can't wait for my NSVs to begin!

I did not get one of the breathing things from the hospital, but I've been taking deep breaths and holding them. As for the gas...I don't think I've ever burped this much in my life! :-) Thanks for the responses!

Hello everyone! I was just banded Friday and was wondering if anyone else has experienced a sore neck/back (in addition to general belly pain). I got my period the day before banding, so I know that doesn't help with the mix. Oh well. I also have some pain when I take really big breaths. After reading a lot of other posts, I assume most of this will go away soon. Any tips would be appreciated!
