I had my lap band surgery on 03/06/2012 and have lost 8 lbs since having the surgery. My goal is to be down to 145lbs. My presurgical, prediet wt was 268lbs and I am down to 249.

I pray we can be free from this part of the recovery soon! I want to feel good about the surgery and look forward to happy days of my knee's not hurting and being able to walk up the stairs and not be out of breath! But this gas pain got me wondering what's worst!!!lol All I can say is hopefully ''this too shall pass"!

It will pass, I am feeling better but still have the left shoulder pain but not near as often as it was. I am down 11 lbs post surgery in 7 days 25 since starting pre op. We will get through this, we will. Keep your chin up
