I am on third week post op and have lost 25 lbs but even though I am really trying from the bottom of my heart to eat well and mostly do, I eat bigger portions and eat bigger bites. I am extremely hungry constantly. I am allowed soft foods at this stage, soft enough to break with fork. I am really afraid of what it maybe doing or done to my band. I have no pain whatsoever, not even in my port area. Feels like no band at all. Please can someone tell me what it feels like if stitches are ripped or if the band slips. Has anyone gone thru it in the post op stages. Please advice. Thanks
