Had my first fill 12-20.went on liquids for 2 days . could feel some restriction then for a little . Appetite is back and so far have kept it under control but need a fill already as No restriction there . Cant wait to get to the point where I feel full on small amts of food.It will make it all worthwhile . Have still lost about 30lbs and feeling better but want it to contine without having to give it so much thought ... Oh well tomorrow is a better day !!!

Hi I am new to this group hoping to stay in touch with all as we all move forward on this new exciting journey!! Stopped pain meds yesterday, just still lots of gas !!! Sometimes i get feelings of pressure in chest, not sure if this is gas or not. Deep breathing still hurts... Walking around -Out of bed most of the day-hope to return to work next week. Are u all on a clear liquid diet for first week and then on to semi -solids??? Any good ideas for Protein drinks that are enjoyable? So far have not been hungry..Hope it lasts .. Well good luck to all :clap2:

I was banded on 11/7. i think i am doing very well so far. Last night slept good without pain meds. Still having gas pains to left shoulder and feel pressure in chest at times. Walking does help me . Did anyone newly banded feel ? Muscles constrict when laying down ? I am worried about this as it maybe a hernia?
