I am a newbie, I was banded 12/30/08. So I am a week out. I see my Doctor tomorrow. I am better now but the first 4-5 days I had alot of Left shoulder pain, gas I supposed. Tomorrow I will find out how much weight I have lost.:thumbup: This is my first ever post.

Welcome! Just a LITTLE warning; you may not show a loss yet. During the surgery they really pack us with fluids etc and our bodies freak a little, so many people go up in weight for surgery (I gained over 9 pounds) and it takes a week or two for it to come back off. Many view the 1st 6 weeks post op as a time to focus more on healing than loss...so I HOPE you lost, but if it isn't as much as you hoped, or you show a small gain, don't let it get you down. It'll come off! AND I may very well be totally off base and you'll show a good loss! I hope you do!

Anyway welcome!
