Mine was 6 weeks

Still haven't eaten today. I hope I feel better tomorrow.

Hey I had quite a large lunch on Monday which filled me up and made me feel sore in the tummy. So it's now Thursday lunch and I haven't felt the urge to eat anything and I still feel bloated and full. I haven't vomited or spit up I have burped quite a bit and I haven't eaten anything at all. There was one time when a tiny bit of vomit came up the back of my throat but went back down. I have been drinking Water and a bit if juice with no issues. Do you think it's just taking time to go through or there may be a bit that's too large that can't go through causing issues? I have a doctors appointment next week, but what should I do in the meantime? I was banded in January this year and have his no other problems at all. I have also lost 16kg (35pounds)

Yup I'm with Dr P. He is really wonderful. I had my first fill last Wednesday and doing well. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Hope for relief soon.

So bloated my work pants don't fit even though I've lost 5kg. Day 6 post op still very bloated and gassy but back at work. I have been walking heaps, (Average of 2-3km walking per day) and taking de-gas. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Got some de gas pills and they are doing ok. I think chewable would work better for me as chewy reflux squares work better than the pills for me. Will try and find some. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

I was banded 5 days ago and starting to feel good. How long until I can start doing weighs? How long until I can start doing toning exercises (yoga, Pilates)? What have you guys going to be the best exercises for toning skin and weight loss? Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Congrats. I am 3 days after surgery and each day does get better. The first full day was the worst for me and 3 days on I still have gas pain and a little of a sore throat. But each day is better. Good luck Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

I have been walking about an hour a day in small increments. I still have so much painful gas! Nothing else is a problem but this damn gas. Does anyone know what the Aussie version of gas-x is. My chemist doesn't know of anything that will help. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Oh thanks everyone. I am going to increase fluids and walk more. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

3 days post op, on liquids and not hungry at all. My stomach churns a lot but I think it's cos of the gas. I cant burp very well so it feels like there is a lot if gas to cone up. I have a sharp pain on the left shoulder and also my left side ribs and it hurts when I breathe. Did anyone else feel like this?? What's the best thing to do?? I'm meant to be going back to work in 3 days. Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk

Yup I'm home it's Friday morning and the op was Tuesday afternoon. I actually was dreaming about Heath ledger when the nurse woke me up. I'm on clear fluids for a few days, I have a lot of gas that hurts but I have never been very good at burping so the doc says I have to try to walk it off. I have shoulder pain and my tummy feels sore, and my throat I'd still hurting from the tube, like I have a bad cold. But in 3 days if not eating just drinking I've lost 3kg. I'm back at work on Monday so hopefully I can move around more the next three days, I'm still very stiff in the stomach and it takes me a while to get up and down.
