shanna_j 0 Posted November 29, 2008 Hey, My name is Shanna. I'm a 32 year old wife and mom... and I got banded on Monday November 24th, 2008 by Dr. Daniel Jones at the Beth Israel Deconness Hospital in Boston, MA. I'm doing pretty well, but there are times when I get extremely uncomfortable and I feel like I can actually FEEL the band inside and it's not right... but then again, I don't know how it's supposed to feel since this is all new to me. It might be the gas... it might just be me being nervous. BUT, I'm doing better than what I though I was going to be... and I've finally got it done! I'm down just about 12 pounds already and I can say for once that I don't hate the scale.< /p> Well, I hope to get to know many of you and walk along side you as we all become healthier and look towards the future. Please introduce yourselves... I can't wait to talk to others who are right here with me! Thanks, Shanna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PontiacMan 0 Posted November 30, 2008 Nice to meet you. We have the same bandday as I had mine put in Nov 24th as well. Mine was done at Miriam Hospital in RI. I've lost 14lbs so far. Finally got past most of the gas pains and shoulder pain. Right now I'm battling with some heartburn but feeling better each day. Are you on liquids only too? I got to admit I fill up quick but am missing "chewing" even though I don't feel hungry!!! Keep in touch.......Bill:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
