im glad you posted. Im in so much pain today. think its from picking up the baby so often. i actually feel sick with the pain. I was banded june 10th

im day 17 and still having quite a bit of port pain...i wouldnt say its constant, but it hurts with movement and it just feels so uncomfortable...will this ease up? it seems to hurt all across my ribs sometimes too.

yeah, im delighted with that, i meant by comparison to the op's 20lbs!

enjoy it! I am day 9 today and im down only 9lbs, from 215 to 206 and i havent lost anything in the last two days. My calorie intake has never exceeded 600 yet, and i've been walking everyday.

Go back go back go back...follow the instructions you were given. Start to think about the reasons you have gotten the band and allow yourself to imagine and daydream about what you want to look like and feel like. If food was your friend you wouldnt be posting here. You slipped up, forget about it and get back on the wagon! Remember, if you always do what youve always done you'll always get what what youve always got!

im day 7, by day 5 i was so much better, i walked slowly and used rennie deflatine which i guess must be the same as gas x in america. Hang in their it does get better. focus on being positive.

im a week done and im hungry as of today

im day 7 post op and my appeitite is starting to return...ugh

i had my surgery abroad and flew home on day 2. Not entirely pleasant but i had a lot of walking where as you would just be sitting.

thanks for the reply, good to know its not an actual problem! At least i can look forward to it going away, the sooner the better!! its not nice at all!

Im not seeing my aftercare team until july so would appreciate hearing what your guys think! Hopefully it will clear, its really crappy Good idea about the weights, i intend on starting when i am healed

I had my op on 10th June and i am in exactly the same boat as you, it stops me in my tracks, the gas is a little better today but still finding it uncomfortable, but the chest pain/spasm/lodged feeling is very painful...dont know what it is

appreciate the answers...he says there is zero fill and no i havent had a hernia repair...im hoping it will get better but so far not good

Hi, I had my surgery on June 10th. I was suffering from terrible gas, it seems to be starting to alleviate a little today, but the discomfort in my chest area is not getting any better, in fact it now seems more constant than previously. I dont really know how to describe it, its not a constant pain but more a constant feeling of having something lodged, as if i swallowed a tennis ball, its very uncomfortable, is this normal? is it also gas? I have been able to drink Water fine and my xray post op showed no problems...but the feeling is getting me down Jaynie
