Hey all,

I know I don't post much here, but I wanted to let you all know that I had my surgery one week ago today!! I have lost two pounds, but that's not really my concern right now. I saw the surgeon and got my first fill appt. He said everything was looking good. Haven't been hungry in the slightest, but I have had some pain in my left shoulder.

I'm drinking sugar-free Carnation instant Breakfast for my Protein and am on full liquids for another week.

Thanks for all the info on this site, it has been great!

sounds great jacee - keep up the work!!

Hi Jacee,

Glad to know you're doing well. I drink the same Carnation drink and I love it compared to the protein drinks my husband drinks when he's working out.

Today is day 7 for me...and I actually got hungry yesterday. freaked me out...maybe i'm not taking in enough fluids.

keep up the good work!

Yeah, I was banded April 3, I went through that pain for 2 weeks...It's gas, and my doctor told me that I had to walk it off...I also went and got some Gas Relief over the counter and that still didn't work...So my doctor told me that it wasn't that type of gas, it was the gas they use during surgery and it needed to come out...But that pain hurts like hell
