3 days

:frown:I am 3 days post op and having some issues with getting fluid in. I feel like my somach as been cut off in my esophagus. Hoping this feeling in my chest will disapear

I had that too and its no fun but I think it will resolve. I was taking tiny sips of water and seemed to be swallowing air because every sip produced a feeling and sound of tiny bubbles coming up. I coulnt seem to drink in a way that would stop it but it did resolve and get a bit easier every day. So I am guessing you already have a lot of restriction maybe entirely due to swelling but maybe also due to the size of your band and whats in it if anything. I am now a month post op and I have had perfect restriction (excluding those few days of what you are describing) ever since. I also have almost zero appetite or head hunger...I love it. Even my self pay was way well worth it...good luck!

Day 5 and I am hoping for less pressure and less distress, Cant believe I am only eatting 200-300 cal. a day and dont think of food. I use to become dizzy by 11:30 in the am waiting for my 600 cal lunch and then was starving by 2 ! Hope this continues
