I was banded 6 weeks ago. Now I am feeling good, great as a matter of fact! Like nothing even happened! I was told I have my first fill 3 months from the day of the surgery... so till then?? I am hungry... still eat the same things I did before, dont get full any quicker. I try to chew my food but other than that nothing is any different than before the surgery. Is this normal... I know this is suppose to be the healing time... but sometimes I feel like omg, am I really ever gonna begin to lose weight... !!
