I am glad to know I am not the only one having pain. And this pain is weird. I have a spasm in my ? band area every time I change position, sitting, to lying, to standing or swallowing. I had my band on the 24th and I not sure I really knew what I was getting in to. Don't get me wrong I want to loose weight but I did not know I was going to feel this way post op. I figured I could breeze through it. I too am having so mental eating issues. I can not stand the liquid breakfast drink. So I have be eating pured soup with milk powder for the protein. That has helped.
