I eat chicken, fish fruit and veggies but instead of snacking i have a protein shake or some natural raw almonds to help satisfy my hunger in between meals. I have had no problems eating or drinking which is fantastic, no stuck episodes or vomiting.

Thank you for that, when i get hungry i try to just have a shake so i don't eat to much and that seems to help. I'm losing so that's a plus but can't wait until my hunger is satisfied for a longer period

I go for my first fill in May 1st, I'm kind of nervous. I don't really have a lot of restriction, i basically restrict myself by eating very small portions like they say to do. Trying to train myself, is it normal to not have any restriction 3 weeks post op?

LoL thank you all for these answers it has helped. I have only lost 3 pound since Surgery day which will be two weeks tomorrow. But i am down a total if 13 since the pre OP liquid diet so i guess that's good

Thank you

Ok yeah i noticed that little stinging sensation for the first time today under my right breast. Thank you for that information because i was like what is that, doesn't hurt just a little uncomfortable. I'm still tender in certain areas but not bad for two weeks post surgery.

Thank you i thought so, I'm a newbie so i have lots of questions

Is the port located where your largest incision is?
-
Awesome thank you I'm so exited to see the results.

I honestly don't feel like i have one and it's only been on since April 1st and i don't have any restriction but i restrict myself by eating small portions like your are supposed to. Is that normal? Any suggestions, i get my first fill on May 1st

Thank you

Ok good to know i don't have any of that so that is a good sign . I just had surgery on april 5th and i keep reading all kinds of horror stories so it made me nervous. I go for my first fill May 1st and am a little nervous because i hear some people have a tilted port or it is backwards, one the dr couldn't get the needle in. Kinda scary, how long have you been bandef and have you had any issues

How can you tell if your band has slipped?
