This is my first post....I had my surgery on August 6th and I'm feeling great. Right now my concern is healing & not weight loss but I have lost 10 pounds since surgery. I'd like to thank everyone who posts on here. Although I did get a wealth of information from my doctor, nutritionist and nurse, you're suggestions were very helpful. The heating pad did wonders for the gas pain. I'm still on liquids and have my first doctors appointment next week. I'm excited to begin this new journey and look forward to all your suggestions/advice.

Good Luck on your new journey !! I was banded on July 16th it is the best decision that I have ever made for myself
