Thanks! I'm just figuring this out. I was on clear liquids for the first 2 weeks. Now, I have added fudgesicles and n/f lite yogurt. I'm still not very hungry.

The pain under my upper left rib has been frustrating. I was feeling so great until it started. It really takes my breath away when it happens. If I wrap my upper stomach with an ace bandage, it helps a lot. My hunger is still under control. I went out for dinner with friends last night, and I was fine not eating. That's a miracle. 203>185> 137 goal How do I get one of the graphics that tracks the weight loss?

I hear you sister. It's so painful!

I have been feeling great and have lost 17 pounds in 2 weeks. Wednesday night when I sat on the sofa I had severe pain in my upper left stomach at the top of the ribs. It has hurt on and off since--sometimes severely. I saw the doctor yesterday and he thought the band may be rubbing on a muscle. Last night I started getting a fever. My doctors don't seem very concerned.

Did it go away on it's own? Did they find anything in the ER? I'm having the same problem. It's a little scary.

Only 3 days post banding, and I can't believe how much better I feel. The only pain is at the port incision when I bend over or twist somehow. Last night and this morning I felt dizzy, so I focused on drinking more fluids, and I feel so much better. I'm feeling hopeful!

My surgery went well, but I was in a lot of pain the first 24 hours. There was a lot of pressure behind my breastbone, and it hurt to breath. My surgeon said the second day would be the worst, but for me it was better. Today is sooooo much better. First two days I was counting the minutes until I could take more vicodin. Today, I have gone 6 hours without any severe pain. Hopefully, tomorrow I won't need it. Today, I have felt well enough to really absorb what I have done and get excited about the future. I can't believe I actually did it.

I had my surgery on 8/7/09. It was done outpatient, and I was home within a few hours. I was in quite a bit of pain on Friday--more than I expected. Saturday was better and today is so much better. I can only drink Clear Liquids for 2 weeks. Surprisingly, I am not hungry. I can't imagine going camping.
