I feel the exact same. I was banded on 5/23 and I just want a solid piece of food. Yesterday I was able to eat creamer Soups so that helped. It also helped that I can eat low fat ice cream and sugar free popsicles. It is only a real problem when I finally get hungry (which doesn't happen very often), but I eat my 1/2 cup to a cup of soup and I am full and I don't want to eat anything. It doesn't help being on my cycle either when I only want chocolate and salty fries. Hang in there. We only have 2 weeks left before we can eat normal Protein like the rest of the world. My fear is that I am eating too fast and cause harm to my smaller stomach. We can do it.

8 days post op and I get a cramp in my side sometimes when I walk. Could it be from the port? It feels like when you run and you catch a cramp in your side. Does anyone else get this? Thanks!

It's been 5 days since being banded and I still have that feeling through out the day.

Thanks you!

do you have any excessive bruising?

Hi All: Is been ~24 hours since being banded. Overall OK nesides the usual gas. Question: I have the biggest bruise around the area of my access port. Did anyone else expierence this? Thanks!
