So it has now been 5 days since I have been banded and I actually feel like I have gained weight. I still have a lot of bloating and pain, I wonder if this is normal? I am going back to work on the 25th and I hope that I am feeling better by then.

I was banded on 01/14/10. So far it has been a success, with 9 pounds lost pre-surgery. I must say that I do not enjoy this "liquid" diet but it does have its perks. At least I continue to loose weight, and that is the whole point of this process. I hope that every day will get a little easier and the weight will continue to fall off.:thumbup:
