OKay here it goes.....I was banded on 03-28-12..Got through surgery just fine only had pain for about two days. 2 1/2 weeks out I feel great and pretty much healed. My issue is I don't get my first fill until 04.26.12. I have been trying to stick to my diet, and eating healthy with small portions but I am so hungry, and find myself starting to eat more and more and not feeling full like I did right after the surgery. I had originally lost 25 pounds and now I have gained 6 of the pounds back....ugh...any advise or ideas are welcome....

Feeling A Lot Better
· mstraci · 04/02/12 04:26 AM
Hello Everyone!! I was banded on last Wednesday, 03/28/2012 at 9:45am. The first two days were rough with the gas pains. I woke up on the third day and felt great. I was able to get out and go for about a half a mile walk, and didn't even have to stop and rest I would say the hardest thing going into my 5th day post op is the liquid diet. Since I did it a week pre op as well. I am so tired of broth and sf jello/Popsicles, and protien shakes. I am just ready for some texture or I guess something a little different. But over all everything is going great and I look forward to getting into the gym!!!!!!

24 Hours Down

I was banded on Wednesday 03/28 and I am still feeling icky.....I have a lot of pain in my chest and shoulder. My incisions are not hurting as bad as my chest. I also had a hernia repaired while I was under yesterday, so I guess that may be adding to the pain.. Hoping tomorrow is a better day......
