I'm Banded!!

I was banded on 20th July and everything went great, I was out of hospital the next morning.

I am suffering a bit today, lots of pain in my left shoulder whenever I drink which seems to go if I lie down for a while. Did anyone else experience this, if so, how long did it last for?

I am also starting to get very bored of this liquid diet. I haven't felt hungry once, but I do need to force down Slim Fast or Soup every few hours in order to keep myself from going dizzy. I have 4 weeks of liquids and I think this is going to be really tough, does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could have instead of Slim Fast or Soup?

On the plus side, I have already lost 8 lbs and my stitches are being removed on Wednesday!!
