I had my band back in July and I had the exact pain on my left side I always thought it was my port and I was unable to sleep on my left side for like a month but my port was way higher than I thought. I still get a pain on my lower left side right where my ovaries are when I'm constipated.

Hey July Bandsters I'm super proud of all of u guys. I was banded on July13th of this year. So far I've lost 40 pounds. Super thrilled but now with my third fill I feel restrictions with my food intake and thats great but I take my vitamins everyday and I've began to notice that my hair is like falling out. I'm totally bummed because it took me forevvvveer to grow my hair long and I dont want to be all bald. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced hair loss with their weight loss . I'm not have any problems with feeling too tight but should I go to my doctor to have fluid removed? OH well let me know what Y'all think and keep up the good work people!

Today while sitting in my recliner with my remote on my tummy I noticed the remote moving. Im not in any pain but concerned that I can see and feel my tummy rumbling. Rumbling not due to hunger. Is this normal? Has anyone had this feeling ?

I was banded July 13 th and I also had a hernia repaired. I'm feeling loads better little to no pain but I totally just noticed today as I was relaxing in my recliner with the tv remote on my belly and I noticed that the remote was moving so I lifted my shirt and saw my belly moving. Im not. Inpain but does anyone elses belly move. God I hope it's not bad?

It's weird cuz the only way I can burp is if I hiccup before the burp. Ne one else have hiccups and noticed too that I sneeze a lot since surgery.

I don't think it matters if it's soy or whey. I'm in the soft food stage and I've been eating tofu to get some of my protein along with my whey protein shakes.

Omg I've been doing the same thing! I feel so horrible I feel like I graze all the time on tiny bites. I was banded on July 13th and my first fill is on august 18th and I can't wait for my fill. Since my surgery I've lost 15 pounds but thank god I haven't gained weight which is what I'm scared of! god willing I can get back on track and lose more weight and I'm sure you'll do great with your band good luck to u!

I'm totally looking forward to my first fill. Lately since it's empty I feel like I'm eating way too much for having the band. And have been stuck with my weight loss. Bummer!!

Are hiccups bad? After surgery I had the gas pain up in my left shoulder ever since then I can't burp without hiccuping is this bad?

Ugh! I'm about 18 days out with no fill yet and I feel like I am eating more than I should be eating but I don't get the feeling of throwing up or full. I'm totally concerned. I mean I don't eat as nearly as much as I used to but I feel it's toomuch for having the band I'm hungry like all the time. God I hope I'm not alone here and I hope I haven't messed. Up my band!

Oh god I made the mistake of trying some bread and I was dying for like 4 hours I felt like it was stuck in my chest. But have u had any problems withthe food because lately I feel like I can eat everything and anything I'm always hungry. But I know that i can't and I don't.

Omg do u have gas up in your left shoulder. That was the worst. Good luck you'll do well!

I'm two weeks out is it normal to still be sore?
