  1. Hi ya'll, im 3 weeks post op and have been getting stomach pains alot. It happens after I eat a meal. I told my doc he told me it must have been what I ate, and put me on liquid until the pain went away. Well, I went on full liquids for about 2 and a half days. I was still feeling the stomach pain on just about everything I ate/drank. Had tomoato soup, stomach pain afterwards. After 2 days, I tried to go back to solids, and had one bite of a hamburger patty, and stomach pains, I lasts about 2 hours or so. Im not sure what to do. Has anyone been through something similar? Or have any suggestions?
  2. Hi, im new to the forums. I have a question about how much water to consume. I am 20 days post op and my doc is not giving me a clear answer, or im not explaining it correctly. Since having the band im having a problem on how much water to consume before eating. When I drink it goes through the band and goes to my stomach. I get confused on where I feel full from. So when I drink water, I feel full in my stomach and then I get scared to eat because I feel full already. So my question is how much water did you guys drink before a meal?
