Shonia, I will know my surgery date on Tuesday and am very excited about it! I have been thinking about lap band surgery for about 4 months and doing research on it. I too am worried about the gas pain after the surgery more than anything...but then I also worry about be able to change my eating behaviors. I love soda. I obsess about drinking with a straw (could be worse I guess). I am also worried about how to handle the initial getting used to the lap band, but know that these changes will make me feel so much better and help me live a healthy life for myself and my family.

Sounds like we will be on this journey at the same time, so we'll have to stay in touch with our progresses! Good luck and take care! lb
