  1. Oh yeah, I still have my gall bladder
  2. I stopped measuring my food. The nausea comes and goes... I think I will go see my PCP
  3. Happy Birthday and congratulations.
  4. I was banded 4/24 and have had I fill. My stomach hurts all the time even before the fill. It hurts when it's empty. It hurts when it's full. Does anyone have this problem? Any ideas? I want some relief:( How do you keep the stomach gas down? Could it just be a constant build up of gas? It feels like muscle pain both top and bottom but never together. Like a weight is sitting near my belly button. I don't know how else to describe it.
  5. Do you feel guilty if you eat a not so healthy food, even if it keeps you in your calorie range???
  6. I have the same issue... But I'm still learning my triggers. It's been hurting since the surgery
  7. I'm a teacher in the south suburbs of Chicago. I went back Monday felt awful from gas pain. So I took two more days off. I hv my 1st post op appt tomorrow. Going back to work Thursday.
  8. I feel like I'm the only one hungry;( it seems like all the time. Which is new for me because I'm a under eater. I hv always prefered to drink my meals so the liquid diet has been easy. But the hunger pains every few hrs I didn't expect. I thought I would be full longer. I see the dr tomorrow on my 8 th day post op. I'm ready for more food just to feel full. Any guesses as to why I'm always hungry???

  13. I'm a 2 nd grade teacher 6 days post op. I tried to return To work today. Bad idea! The gas pain was horrible. I thought the walking would do me good. Yeah, no. I took more pain meds at work than I have at home. Soo I'm going to wait a few more days and try again. What did other teachers do?
