Hi there and congratulations - exciting times! I'm sorry I can't read the italic font but sending best wishes for speedy recovery. Don't forget to walk all you can!

I was banded yesterday as well, overall pretty good except for that annoying shoulder pain. Oh and extreme hunger - I could do without that right now. Yay us!

Welcome to our banded family! We are so glad each of you have chosen to join us! The first few days are the worst...no way around it. But, it gets better each day. Be sure to walk, and get in your fluids. Listen to your doc. And don't rush it. Take time to heal. Don't stress over weight loss quite yet. It will happen, but not tomorrow. And, don't compare yourself to others on here...you are unique and will have a path that is all yours to follow. Good luck! We are here to encourage you as needed
