  1. I got my band on July 12, 2010 and I have not had any problems keeping food down or any of that, but early on this week I noticed I was starting to have like a sharp pinching feeling every so often around my port. Nothing to the point of me losing my breath or anything, but a feeling of someone just pinching me. Has anyone else experienced that?:party:
  2. :party: lol i burp all the time and it do leave a funny after taste i cant really say its the protein because i started drinking them before the surgery and I don't remember having the funny after taste
  3. I was banded on 07/12/2010 and I know all too well the feeling you are experiencing right now> I can assure you it will get better as the swelling goes down. That gas that you are referring to well it could be that you are drinking your drinks through a straw or mabe even drinking them too fast. My hardest challenge was drinking slow, but believe me you will learn to. I know you are probaly tires of all the liquids but you dont want to start solids before you are ready it could be a disaster trust me. Just be encouraged and introduce one semi solid at a time until you are ready for pureed. I even went so far as to do stage one/ two Gerber ( baby foods) that went ok for me but at the same time you will have to eat it slow. Also try a variety of protein shakes so you dont get burned out on the. Myo-fusion is a good brand to try.
