Banded on the 1st of September

I was a little sore the first couple of days and swollen in the tummy, but all I have to report is that I’m feeling fine, eating whatever I want and drinking my Diet Cokes and having NO consequences. I know it sounds silly, but I feel like a walking defect. I’m blessed and thankful to not be sick, but I’m nervous that I’m drinking and eating so freely.

I'm pretty sure that goes away after your first fill. Maybe someone more educated in the experience will help you out.

Check out the FAQ in the Basics for Lap Band Beginners on the home page. Loads of info about this and other stuff.

Good luck with your learning curve....steady as you go.
