Hi everyone, This is the first time writing. I was banded 10/8/08. I have lost 11 pds. I was just wondering right where i think my port is,is sore certain ways i move bother me and if i were to bend down to pick something up it hurts. This will eventually go away won't it ? Also when do you no if you need a fill ? It is almost a month since my band and just in the last few days i think im starting to feel hungrier i have had no problems eatting things and i don't think i eat that slow. I hope it's working right. Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ethel P
