ok so i have some questions for you banders out there

1. How much does a fill hurt, if at all?
   
2. about how much do you lose a month if you follow the meals, etc?
   
3. how is the post op diet?
   
4. ok so im going to be a senior this coming fall, and i wouldnt go to prom my junior year because i was way too embarrissed, im getting banded in July, and have high school swimming (which is about 13 hours a week plue 1-2 meets) prom is in may, how much do you think is a good idea to think i would possibly lose?

1. How much does a fill hurt, if at all? Haven't had a fill yet, but I heard they don't hurt much at all.
   
2. about how much do you lose a month if you follow the meals, etc? You're young, so it should come of a little faster, but we've been told to expect 1-2 pounds per week. It also comes off a little faster at first if you're BMI is higher. Since you didn't divuldge your weight, it's kinda hard to hazard a guess
   
3. how is the post op diet? Everyone has different reactions to it. I'm doing OK with it so far. I have my moments of feeling deprived, but over all, it's doable.

It will probably be pretty close the same after the band.

Best wishes

thank you so much, that really does help :-D
