can i ever eat pasta again? How do you guys handle it?

I just had surgery last week. My left shoulder, arm and back is killing me. Did any of you have this happen and what did you do? It hurts so bad!! Also, how long after surgery until you stopped feeling uncomftorable? Tomorrow it has been a week since surgery and i am still hurting a little bit.

I just got banded last Thursday (9-25-08), and i was SO SO SO scared. I had never had surgery or anything. I was crying the night before and the morning of. Let me tell you it was not that bad. My fear of the procedure was way worse then the acuall procedure. Just relax and have faith in what you are doing. I was treated fabulous as i am sure you will be. I know you will still probably be scared (i was even though everyone told me not to be), but just remember everything will be fine. It is over with before you know it. Everything will go great!

I am getting banded tomorrow at North West Weight Loss surgery! I am so scared! I have never had surgery before and i am starting to panic. If some of you could tell me your stories i might feel better! Thank you.
