Had my first fill today (1cc). Finally! 9 weeks after surgery. Bad news: Gained 4 pounds. Anywho, came home and tried to eat dinner. Ended up throwing that up. Frustrated!

I hear ya on that one! I only lost a half of a pound in 2 weeks! This is not what I anticipated at all...

I'm 4 weeks post banding and I'm totally confused. I don't feel much restriction and I"m wanting to snack all of the time. This is very depressing. Is this going to get any better??:tongue_smilie:

Started my blended foods today. I ate way more than I thought I'd be able to. I'm a little upset and confused. I know the band isn't filled yet, but shouldn't there be some restriction??:thumbup:

A lot of times the itching can just be the scar tissue forming. It's a normal part of the healing process.

Thanks, I will try that!

:sad:Was banded on Wednesday (1/13/10) and I am starving and I have a very crampy feeling in my esophagus.

I was banded this Wednesday and am starving as well! This isn't what I expected!
