Hello. I was banded on 2-18-09. To me this was the beginning of a new life. However, confusion over the procedure (even though I've already had it) still hasn't left my mind. Should I have done it? Are the possible side effects worth it? Probably a little too late for that since I am now BANDED. I know that as time passes I will feel stronger, but I am a little weak right now so I guess I'm just unsure at this time. However, HELLO to all and I hope this site will assist me with all my uneasiness and questions. Thank you to all who will read this.

I also had my surgery Feb. 18th. I'm doing the liquids and I feel like I was also run over by a bus. However, I have this nagging sharp pain on the left side of my stomach, right below my rib. I am praying that will go away soon! I am very weak right now, no desire to do anything. I am hoping that as soon as I start incorporating some solids it'll raise my energy levels again.

I am feeling the same. I had my surgery Feb 18th and I have a sharp pain right below my left rib that keeps nagging @ me. I'm also hungry, but I am drinking cranberry juice, chicken brother, sugar free jello, sugar free pops and lots of water. I just keep trying to get focused on the ultimate goal to get me through. I also hope to feel MUCH better soon, I start work again on Monday.
