Hi, I also got my first fill today! 0.5 cc. It pinched a little but would not say it was painful. I'm now on liquids for 24 hours. I was banded April 10 and have lost 26 pounds.

I had my surgery April 10. I agree about the pain level. It is a bit more sore than I expected, but its the gas pain that's the worst. I am also walking a much as I can and got gas ex today. Hang in there. I hope like everyone says it will get better each day.

One of my bandster friends said to try gas ex chewable or strips. Will let you know if it helps. I'm also walking a lot.

I though the pre op diet was great. It definitely prepares you for the post op liquids. Good luck!

I stayed in the hospital over night. I can't imagine going home the same day. I also had a hiatal hernia repair. Am home now. Still very sore but it's manageable. Staying on top of it with the prescribed pain meds. Sticking to liquids. Had about 2 oz apple sauce and that was enough.

Banded today!!! Sore but good.
