Swollen Tummy

I was banded on Nov 6th. My tummy is still puffy and swollen. Especially after I eat, my tummy if bigger and fatter and sticks out more than before the surgery.

Does anyone else have this problem? How long before your stomach is back to normal?:rolleyes

I was just banded on Nov 24th and am feeling the same thing. Have you gotten any responses or advice?

It took almost 2 weeks for me to get back to feeling semi-normal, and then another 2 weeks before I felt really good. Walk a lot. It helps with all of the healing process.
