Cramps are killing me!

I got my band 2/13/13. I have my first fill next week. Everything seemed ok until yesterday. Then these MONSTER cramps came on, like contraction feeling almost. They are horrible. Is this normal? It's worse if I eat anything.

Also...I'm hungry all the ime. I never feel full. Will that change after I get a fill?
