I just had my lapband surgery done on January 26th, I lost 13 lbs the first week, 7 the second week, and 2 the third week. Now I've sort of stopped and I am working out like crazy. However, I am starving all the time. Since I moved to normal food I feel like I'm never full. I still eat small portions because I want to lose weight BUT I'm not filling full until I eat more than I thought I would. Mind you I haven't had a fill yet and I won't until the 18th of March. BUt should I not feel resistance until my fill. My doctor said I really shouldn't yet, but I just wanted to get the advice of others that have actually had the procedure done. Thank you.

I'm seriously looking forward to my first fill 3-18!!!

Thank you all for the reassurance that this is normal. I look forward to my fill so that I can really start dropping the weight. I did speak to my doctor and told him my work out regiment. He seems to think that the exercise is good for my. I guess I lost so much weight in those first 2 weeks and didn't feel the hunger. Week 3 and 4 have been a little different. But I'll continue to watch what I eat and work my big butt off, literally. :tt2: Thanks again.

It's the gas.... I have to same feeling for hours. I like to just walk around for while and try to release it. It's pretty brutal but I do think it's common amongst Lapband patients. :eek:
