  1. Thanks guys for sharing ur thoughts. I was told by the dr that the band was too tight on me and they had put fluid in the time of surgery which made the band too tight on me. Were u guys able to have enough water post op or did u feel too full wid a small cup of soup? Im not so bad but i expected not to hv much trouble wid my fluid intake.
  2. Hi Tiny, Thanks for the reply. I hope it gets better soon. I dont feel safe to start on mushie food from next week if im strugglin so much just wid liquids. I ll see how i go on the weekend. If it doesnt get better i ll hv to go bk to the surgeon and hv all the fluids taken out. Not eating is even ok but not drinkin is scary.
  3. Hi everyone, Im on post op day 5 since i had the Lap band surgery. Im on fluids but still finding it hard to take enough fluid. I feel too full even wid some soup. I had some fluid taken out on day 3 post op and still have a lot of discomfort in my throat. Specially when i lie down. Some saliva kinda fluid accumulates in my mouth but i hv never vomited since the op. anyone had these symptoms? Does this get better? I dont think i cld live wid this if this is how it was meant to feel like
