Lol or gassy assy! I was banded on Jan 30th and gas pain stuck around for exactly 2 weeks. I walked and walked that seemed to help, gas x didn't do nothing for me. I found out that diluted warm apple juice -
I am 15 days post op and I feel full all the time. For example, I had a 1/2 a lean shake for breakfast and the other half for a snack and still feel really full. Any suggestions/comments are greatly appreciated.

I'm on stage 2, which consists of broth, soup, sf popsicle , sf fudgesicle, jello, yogurts and pudding and must have 64 oz of fluids and 80 grams of protein daily.. I don't start on pureed foods till stage 3 day 21 post op.

That's okay. I felt good other than having gas pain/discomfort. The worst part is the gas pain, especially when it radiates to your left shoulder/back. I was up and walking around the same day and went back to work after a week.

Lbktxgal replied to SecretBander's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Of water. I tried the unflavored protein but it taste horrible with jello and broth. I would rather Drink the water down Kool aid. Sorry for the 3 post I kept hitting send instead of the arrow . Have a good day! -

Just got banded today, and in so much pain!
Lbktxgal replied to Cat225's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 2 days post op. My main discomfort is gas pain in upper chest and left shoulder. I too have been taking gas x, but doesn't work. I laid down on my side and that helped alot. I also put pillows behind my back and today I went to Walmart, shopped and walked, that helped out tremendously. I blew up when I got home, talk about RELIEF!!!! Hang in there! -
