Hi All.

I was banded on 6-4-07 and an having a bit of a rough go of it but am still glad I did it.

My start BMI was 45.5 and I have lost about 8 pounds.

Still on all liquids and having a bit of trouble getting them down at times. I sure this will pass.

Hi Heather - I was banded on 6-6-07. Everthing is going well. Some shoulder pain. I have heard each day gets better. Hang in there, give your body time to heal. We are in this for the long haul, right? Let us know how you are doing.

Heather, I had my surgery on 5-2-07 and each day did get better and I feel great now. Hang in. You'll get there!
