Hi there, I am in the same boat. I was banded on the 6th of October and even my liquids are making me feel bloated. I know its only been 5 days sin ce my surgery, but i was wondering when this feeling would go away!! Still worth it though! Ive lost 8lbs in 5 days :sad:

Hey everyone, I was banded on the 6th of October, and my first night of pain was hell! Really uncomfortable. Everyone is different. A friend of mine said she had no pain, so i was kinda worried mine was soimething serious, but it has been 5 days since my surgery and it has eased off a lot. I am on my liquid diet and in 5 days have lost 8lbs. Well chuffed! The only discomfort i feel now is just at my port scar. Cant really explain it. Feels strange, but not painful. Once everything has healed, will i still feel this feeling? Hope not.
