I'm Banded!

WooHoo! I was banded this morning.

For the most part, I feel good, considering. I am walking around the house just fine.

FYI...the worst part, for me, is the pain in my chest and especially me neck! The left side of my neck feels like I have 5 pulled muscles in one spot. This is all from the gas and as soon as that goes away, life will be great!

Congrats to all who were also banded and the others with a lapband in their very near future!
