I live in Indiana. Iwas banded 1-19-09 and it's been hard. I just can't seem to find the happy ground.I've been filled 2x the 1st one was 2cc and the 2nd was 1cc but got sick so I had to have 1/2cc taken out last wk now I don't feel full again.When will I get to my sweet spot? I've lost a total of 30lbs since Dec.08. I go to the gym 3x a wk and do at least 30 mins of cardio. So please help....

I was just banded 1-19-09.I have the same problem. I have gas all the time and I burp all the time.My Dr. said I need to slow down. Even if I think I'm going slow she said slow it down more.So we'll see if this helps me..Another problem I have is I feel no restriction at all.So I really have to watch how much and how slow I eat.So good luck.... -

I was just banded 1-19-09. I was a fast food/junk food junkie. I was quit surprised when I took my kids to Mc D's that it didn't really bother me as much as I expected. I hope it gets to were I don't even care if I eat it.

I was just banded 1-19-09. I'm hungry all the time. If I didn't have the cuts or pain to show I had surgery I would never know. I see the surgeon next Thurs.Does anyone feel this way or felt this way right after surgery? Another question is I have gas and burp all the time.Is this normal? I Know the gas is but the burps and gas are all the time. I thought the gas would of passed by now since it's been over a week now.Thanks....

Thanks everyone. I am walking all the time. It's not gas from anastishia anymore I don't think. I think it's just gas. The burping is all the time. As for meals,I'm ready to eat anything in site.It's so hard.But I did see the nurse the other day and her and the nutritionist put me on stage 3 for the food.So I do get egg and some tuna along with pureed meats(which I can't get myself to do) So we'll see.

HELP ! Stomach Pain Since Surgery (3 Months Post Op)
skinnymommy replied to a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Good luck with your colonoscopy. I hope they will find something. I had similar pain before I was banded and they never found a cause but I changed my diet and things got better.Let us know how the test goes. -
Thanks for the support. That sounds good sharons.

Hello I'm new here. I was banded on Jan.19th 2009. I'm still having some pain by the port area.Also I'm still hungry all the time.I'm following the liquid diet.I can't wait for a fill so I'm not so hungry.Well I can't wait to get to know everyone and hear your success stories.
-
I also like those as well. I also found slim fast high protein that's not to bad. Good luck....

I was just banded Jan.19 and the gas isn't to bad if you just walk. The weather here is cold and snow so I go to the store and just walk or even go to the mall.My biggest problem is the port area is so sore.When does that stop hurting?
