Hey everyone! I was banded 3/12 and am down 5 lbs and Im super excited already! I know everyone is different but when did everyones swelling/bloating in their abdomen go down?

That was so long ago I don't recall? Maybe 2 weeks?

Hey there! I was banded 3/8/13. I found that by taking the gas x strips really helped with the bloating. I am 1 week out today and down 14 pounds and feel great! Good luck

I will be banded 2 weeks on Monday... I was feeling really good by day 6 and no pain whatsoever by day 8-9ish. I feel 100% normal at day 12 my port area was really sore on Monday and took a few days to recover.

Good luck and congrats on the weight loss so far. I'm down 14lbs at day 12. It's slowed ways down this week tho!
