Until the band starts getting fills its just along for the ride. i required 5-6 cc in a 10cc band to get sufficient feedback from the band for me to say the band was doing what I thought it should and that took about 6 months. Peer pressure and high expectations create unrealistic personal goals, and when the expectatios are not met, feelings of failure crop up and then we start to look for a reason why we are not losing like others on this boardf. Try to set your own short term goals and for pete sake do not use what people say or do on this board..... This board has its uses for support and information but not comparison!!!!! This journey requires patience and full knowledge of the procedure and its ups and downs which is not happening at the physicians office. Do your own research,ask questions get answers!!!!! Remember patience!!!

Gas X will not work on the gas pumped in your abdomen. Walking and heating pad and your pain meds will help.

The gas x will not help getting rid of the gas used during surgery. Movement of any kind like walking, and a heating pad.
