Not an easy way to put this, but does anyone else ever "feel" their stomach move when they change positions? For instance if you are laying down in bed and then sit up, I feel something flop in my abdomen. Anybody else get this?

I don't know if it my stomach or the actual band that I feel move. It is the oddest sensation. The first couple days after I got banded, I swear it felt like the band was moving up and down, or catching or something. It was actually painful at first. Now I have gotten used to it and don't notice as much.

I hadn't been told about this, nor had I read about it, but I am glad that I am not the only one!

I know! It's so weird. I'm 2 1/2 weeks post-op and the first week it felt like my stomach was a sack of potatoes or something attached to the front of my body instead of part of me.

4 days post & it totally feels like it's moving. It's not painful but is slightly uncomfortable at times. Feels best when i just stand up.

OMG! I thought I was bugging out. I am 11 days out and it has subsided but when I was within the first couple of days I felt it. I don't know if it was the weight of the band or what but it was weird.

I feel like something is pulling at my side and snap back but it hurtsssss...omg..also the top of my stomach burns it feels like heart burn especially when I breath in..when does this end

I never had a burning sensation. I would call the doc and have that checked out. The stomach movement is not so much of the "snap back" sensation you are stating. Its more like a Water ballon moving. Look into that.

i felt that for a good month. use the "breathing machine" they doctor gave u... it might feel painful but boy does it make a difference.
