Hey ladies! I was banded yesterday. Feeling pretty good for the most part. Woke up today really sore, but once I started moving it was better. Drinking propel and had a few sips of broth last night. Lovin my sf Popsicles too. Some minor gas pain in my left shoulder but I've been walking a ton and its not too bad. Hope everyone else is doing ok...

Hello all I was banded yesterday, doing really well just feels like I have just finished doing a million sit ups. I did really well on the pre op drinks ( chike shakes ) I dropped over 30 lbs in 3 weeks. Looking forward to my new way of life. I had to sleep in the recliner last night.

I honestly wasn't watchin calories I been having a few bites of sugar free Jello some sips of Soup and Water and I only had half of a Protein shake... Those are the worst getting down. Sounds like we r all getting our appetite back. My Bly growled today and had some hunger pains. I thought it was gas pains then realized my poor belly was demanding food. Had a few sips of strained and watered down Tomato Soup and a few sips of ice cold skim milk and I am satisfied and enjoyed a tasty treat!! Just took my pain med so ill prob be passed out soon. I'm sure ill be awake in 4 hours still not sleeping all the way through.. Are any if you able to? Again everyone that is going to work take it easy and enjoy your day' date=' don't push yourself and kbush and Alaska have a great time on your trips. Kbush please be careful traveling And listen to your body. Have a fantastic time at Disney it truly is magical! Good night everyone sweet dreams skinny Minnie's!![/quote']

Had my surgery last Thursday 7/18, and am feeling great now! Was kind of sore and bloated feeling the first couple of days (in spite of taking lots of Gas-x and walking around), but didn't have very much pain at all in my shoulders from the gas. Also didn't have any nausea when I woke up from surgery, which was a VERY pleasant surprise! I've always woken up nauseated from surgery. I've lost 11 pounds in the week and a day since I had my surgery, which is very motivating! I have to say, the biggest surprise for me has been the hunger. I didn't realize I'd still be hungry a lot, especially in the first few days when I could hardly get anything down. I have 6 more days of full liquid diet, and am looking forward to moving on to the soft foods!

Good luck to any remaining surgeries this month! Hope all goes well for everyone!
