HI Ya'll!

I am Terri and I was banded on JUNE 9. I have done very well except for this gas im holding in my left shoulder. I know this will work out.........literally..TEEHEE!

It is occurring to me..I am on my way to a skinnier.....healthier me. I find myself looking at magazines.,and seeing clothes and thinking..I CAN WEAR THAT SOON!

I have wasted so many years beating myself up..its time for me to love ME!!

I'm in the middle of deciding whether to take the plunge or not, maybe you should post again in couple of weeks so I can see how your'e doing - help me make my mind up.

Good luck with the gas pain Terri

Welcome to the Banded Gentry!!

Welcome to bandland! It's gets better every day! Try a heating pad on that shoulder!

Welcome Terri! I hope that the shoulder pain is easing a bit. I used a heating pad for about 20 minutes, followed by a cold pack for the same amount of time. The switching of the heat and cold can act like a pump in the body and help to move gas and fluid around. Hang in there and be as gassy as you can.

Welcome to Bandland

Try to do arm circles to move that gas around that is what is causing the pain.

You are right you are on the way to a skinnier new but not a better you cause you were always great to start with you just did not know it.

i may come to you for advice. june 19. getting band. keep the faith
