I had a hernia and a band readjustment done last week because my band slipped. There hasnt been any Fluid in my band for almost a month and my stomach looks and feels bigger but yet ive only gained 10lbs. Has anyone else felt like this way? I feel miserable!

No, I used to not feel this way before my band slipped. Im not sure if its because my stomach has stretched or what? I get a fill in 2 weeks so im counting down the days.

Congrats! You'll be at 150 before you know it!

Don't worry. It's normal. I had the same pains about a month or two after my surgery. I've read that it's actually gas/air pains that got trapped around the port while performing the surgery. It does go away. Nothing is wrong. If it keep going on after about a month or so, I would definitely check in with your band doctor.

I'm from South Georgia. Dr Bagnato banded me in Macon on October 12, 2012. I have lost 35 pounds so far. I feel so much better, and can't wait to see how much more I can lose by summer.

Congrats!! That is amazing. I am so psyched to get it done! I just need to get the $$ part figured out so I can get a date! Fingers crossed that this week ill find out something..waiting is the worst! Keep up the good work

Today I had to go to the my PCP because I became severly congested over the weekend. Not to mention how my stomache feels from all that hacking, sorry tmi... (I have Bronchitis) I was given antibiotics and an inhaler.
Anyway, today I hit under the 300 mark and weigh 298 lbs. and even though its still a high number it just feels so darn good to be out of the 300 + ..
I was so happy I had to share, even though I am too sick to jump up and down yet

Thank ya'll so much for your advice. I'm definitely going back to my mush diet. I was just feeling better knowing that I wasn't full. It is rough, but that's life.
