Band Tightness

I just got a fill this week and was wondering if the tightness I feel is because I am bloated since I am due for my monthly next week. Does this happen to anyone else?

My band gets very tight right before that time of the month. Sometimes when I am under stress it gets tight too. As long as you are getting liquids down without a problem you should be fine. When it's tight don't test it by eating too much-stick to mushier foods or foods you know will go down easily. Good luck!
