I am one week in on having my band placed. i have noticed i am still a little week, filled with gas and my belly button still hurts were the incision went. Does anyone know when I will start feeling normal again? I guess once I can start eating soft proteins, like eggs and cottage cheese is should get better. i have not even been able to go # 2 since I have been banded. Is this normal? Any feedback would be great. Regards and Thanks!
