Well I called my doctor and they said since I wasn't feeling well (caught a cold) and they checked me last month and nothing was wrong that I just need to go on liquid diet for a day or two then back on to mushies then to solids. If I don't feel good in a couple of days to give them a call back. I think I will be okay since I haven't had any pain since going on liquids this morning. Just a lot of burping is all.

I have been banded for almost two years now and so far have had no complications but in the last few days I have felt a small pain on my left side almost like if I worked out to hard. I am worried it may be my band. It's really only a minimal amount of pain like a sore muscle feeling. I am still able to eat and drink normally and the pain isn't constant. When I put pressure or lay on that side I feel fine so I am just worried. I plan to call my doctors office tomorrow and try to go on a liquid diet for a few days to see if it is just an upset stomach but I am worried. Any advice for me besides calling?

I am having weird pains and I know some of it is from eating things I can't handle but I am experience a sort of soreness where my band is that hasn't gone away all day. Is this a normal thing?:help:

Thanks for the welcome guys! I am to excited to be here now because I feel like I found my people cause everyone here understands what's going on with my band because they have bands. :clap2:

I know I am only a week and 5 days out but I just feel bored with food and I am basically forcing myself to have meals. I get hungry but I look at the stuff in my fridge and I just feel bleh about it. Did you guys go through this?:help:

My problem with the Water was the attrocious taste. If it gets even a little warm it tastes gross. The Lemon is the best but even if can get nasty tasting if it gets warm. But it did keep the hunger away so I forced myself to drink it. lol

My name is Ada and I just got lap-band surgery almost two weeks ago and I have really no one to talk to about it so I was excited to find this forum. It's been hard because I am just feeling down, not about the surgery but I just have no one to talk to like I said. Anyway, I hope to see you all around. -Ada
