Really struggling over here. My weight loss has stopped: none in a week since surgery on 6/22. I know this is a time or healing, but I have never had any of the symptoms that everyone has talked about. Never had shoulder pain, or nasuea or vomiting. No tightness or full feeling. My appetite is back with a vengence, I dont even hardly eat meals anymore I just eat little bits all day, which I never did before. My food choices arent' awful but could be healthier. I feel like I am just wondering around not sure what I am really supposed to be doing. My first fill is on August 5th, and not sure what to expect. Two days after surgery I felt as normal as I did before. Beginning to wonder if they forgot to put the band in.

Seriously, are you complaining because you weren't in pain? You don't mean that, do you? I never had any pain either. Until you get restriction, the band won't do much.

Your in bandster hell and really, this is something to be expected. This is healing time, not weight loss time. If you lose any weight within the first 6 weeks post surgery, consider it a plus, not something has gone wrong. Some people do not have pain after surgery ether. After your first fill, you should get some relief. Though you may need a second or a third, before the hunger pains totally stop. Just hold in there and you'll be fine.
