Does anyone have the problem with bloating/trapped gas feeling?? Im just wondering if its more my diet causing that or how to minimize/get rid of it. Ive been eating a little more and worse than I should have the last couple weeks due to family in town. Now I feel huge, super bloated and gassy and miserable :-/ Any advice?

I was banded April 9th so 2 weeks post op. So I posted last week about having zero appetite, wish that was still the case. Boy is it different now. I had made the mistake of trying spaghettios last week for the feeling of eating "real food" and they went down great. That said, ive found myself trying bites of other foods not on my plan and have no issues so it makes me want those foods now! Not really feeling full when I go back to eating a yogurt/pudding or what not. I feel very disappointed in myself for not sticking to diet and that Ive damaged something or that my band slipped from trying foods and thats why food passing so easily this soon outta surgery :-/ Thanks in advance

Thanks everyone just want the best success I can have with my band. Just sucks that Im not getting that "full" feeling. Gonna be a rough couple weeks til my 1st fill lol!

Hello! I was banded last Monday April 9th and have a couple questions on what's normal. I'm having pain/pressure feeling like up towards my rib cage and when taking in a deep breath. Also my incision site where my port is is still pretty painful My main concern which kinda sounds different than a lot I've seen on here is I have ZERO appetite. I have to force myself to even drink Water throughout the day. Whenever I do try to have yogurt or what not, no appeal at all to me. Is that normal? I'm concerned I'm not getting any nutrition or that something's wrong cause I hear a lot of people talk about how hungry and starving they are. And it's not that I get sick why I can't eat, I haven't gotten sick once since surgery, I just don't want anything. Thanks for any help given
