  4. Hello, I just got banded on Feb 9th and I am following the water and jello stage for two weeks. My question to anyone who may be able to help is did any of you feel dizzy and weak? I find that periodically I am getting dizzy and have to sit down or else I am afraid I will fall down. If anyone has any tips on how to overcome this please advise. I can take the not eating part its the dizzy part I am having trouble with.

  7. Hi I was just banded on Feb 9th and have a few questions I was hoping someone could answer for me. Question one and it may sound silly but my stomach growls all the time, im not hungry but it continues to growl and very loudly is this normal? Two I have to force myself to drink because im really not thirsty has anyone else had this issue? I have still have soreness especially on my right side how long does the soreness last for? Three I am burping or passing gas all the time is this normal and if so how long does this last for? Will i be able to lose the 120 pounds I am looking to lose, some girl at work told me i would never do it with a lap band and i was stupid not to get the gastric bypass? Please help
