Hi All, This is my first time posting and had my LAP-BAND® placed about 4 weeks ago. With all the pre-op dieting/ liquid meals, I lost almost 30 lbs. But, in the past few weeks, I have started eating "normally" and seem to be gaining. I am not eating like I used to, just what I feel like a "normal" person would be eating. I have not had my first fill yet, planned for July 30th, but wondering "Am I supposed to be able to eat this much?" I am not eating bad, no soda, no liquid calories just normal sized portions. And, I am STARVING, about every two hours. It seems like I never got a band put on and although I am already making better food choices, I am gaining weight. Looking for some info...will I begin to eat smaller after my 1st fill? Should I be worried? Could I have stretched me "Pouch" already? Should I be this hungry every two hours? Why do I feel like I don't even have a band on? Any information or help / ideas would be apprecaited. THANKS!!
