Just want to say hello to everyone. I got banded 5 days ago. The first two days were a bit rough mostly due to gas pain. After that every day has been a bit better. I have lost 11 pounds in just 5 days and can't believe it. I know the weight loss will probably slow down but still, wow! I have been reading many posts and can't wait to share my journey with all of you!!!! :confused:
