    Question, Leslie, is the cold weather making your wounds ache any? Not sure if it's just me or what. It's been so cold out lately everything on me shivers. Let me know, if you have time.

    How's it going? Just thought I would check in and see how you are doing? I am doing well, sometimes I am a little sore on my left side but getting around good. I went for my 2 week check up today and changed to the "mushy" food stage. Hope everything is going well for you.

    Hey There! I had my surgery on Tues. Nov. 18th. I did not have any problems after surgery but my pain has been with the GAS! :drool: I have only taken Tylenol Liquid Blast. You can find it at walmart where all the pain reliever is. It's cherry and does not taste too bad. I just drink water afterwards. I have not had to use it that much because I dont have that much pain in my incisions. Most of my pain/uncomfortableness is Gas pains, which Gas X strips seem to be helping for that! I have not had much of an appetite either. Not that hungry yet but I seem to be taking my popcicles, protein shakes, and drinking water fine! Good luck to you! Take care and rest!

    I said goodbye to my long time friend Dt. Coke too! I thought it was going to be really hard, but it was'nt that bad! Had a headache for a couple of days but otherwise I survived! I replaced my Dt. Coke habit with drinking Crystal Light. It is pretty good stuff!!! While I was on the pre-op diet I lost 20 pounds! I think it was because I was not drinking lots of Dt. Coke and craving chocolate/sweets/junk food! I had read that drinking dt coke makes you crave sweets but I never thought it was true. I wonder now? Good luck to you on this new and exciting journey!

    Hey everyone! I was banded yesterday on Nov, 18th. Everything went well. I am doing good. Dealing with lots of gas pain too! Just walking and trying to help it get out!!! Can't seem to burp for anything! Hopefully my GasX strips starts to help with the pain and bloating. The heating pad does work on my chest and shoulders for the pain, otherwise I am doing pretty good! Thanks to you all! Good to all!
