I was off all of my pain meds a day after surgery also. I was back to work after a week. I had one incision that got a little infected, so they put me on antibiotics to be sure that the port wouldn't get infected. I have experienced some pinching feelings both port side and stomach, but nothing too bad. I started back to the gym a week after surgery just walking, and by week three I was lifting. I have been eating regular food since week 4 and everything is going well. My only problem is learning to listen to my body's signals for being full.

I was banded July 20th. I have noticed lately , the last two days, that I can eat more lately. I read that overeating can cause slippage. Is this from prolonged overeating? I have not had my first fill yet.I have lost about 19lbs. so far.

I was banded on the 20th. The first week I lost about 12lbs. tuesday I will be at three weeks and I havent lost another pound. I actually gained one. Talk about wanting to throw the scale through the window. i am on soft food I eat between six and nine hundred calories per day. I walk three to four times per week. I don"t get all 64oz of water in but prob 40 or more. i am on or real close to my protein. Talk about frustrating!!

hey i am new to blogging so I'm not sure when you posted. I had my surgery the 20th. are you still on liquids? I only had to be on liquids for a week, then puree, then soft, finally solid. I was just wondering if its different by doctor.
