Banded October 7th. Prior to 6 month pre op diet was 358. Day of Surgery 317. Today 270. Very happy. However, for the last 3 or 4 weeks, I have not lost anything. Have two fills and very little restriction. Hoping next fill in January will help me get losing again.
I was banded October 7th and am 5 days post op. I have had a lot of "gas pain" and lack of energy, but NO hunger pains. My stomach gurgles, more from gas, but no hunger at all. I am on liquids and a protien shake a day but no hunger. From what I read most are starving. I must say, at this point I am happy about this.
