I should probably also mention that I had a BMI of 27 when I had my band put on, and also that I have not yet vomited or PB'd ... It's just really bad nausea after eating or drinking and it's making me take in less fluids then normal.

Hi everyone. I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and have moved up to more dense foods, I feel as though I have no restriction as I am still eating without that feeling of fullness that people talk about and am afraid there is something wrong with my band. I lost some weight immediately post op, as expected from the swelling. But now 2 weeks in I am getting hungry, to the point my stomach rumbles! My BMI was under the average candidate (27) I'm wondering If this has anything to do with it. I'm Scared in going to put on weight that I lost within the next 2 weeks before my first visit back with the sugeon!

Thanks everyone for their responses. I was not filled on my surgery date but have had a hiccup throughout the healing process with a staph infection at my port incision site. I needed it re stitched to help with my healing. In saying that I have lost 5kg's (I think that's like around 11 pounds for those needing the conversion) in 3 weeks. And as I have only had one "moment" when I didn't chew a bit of potato salad properly... Didn't come back but it got stuck.. It's awful. I was supposed to have my first fill today but my surgeon didn't want to until the new stitches come out so a few days time. I'm excited and I'm so ready!
