Is it normal to feel the lap band inside of you? I can feel mine and thought I'd ask to see if anyone else can feel it..

The only time I feel the band is when I'm receiving a fill and for a couple of days after that. It feels like squeezing. Hope this helps.

I feel it during/after a fill sometimes. I also feel my port at night sometimes.

I can't feel mine. I had one fill and felt a "tightness" within but can't feel the band at all.

I cant feel it but touch but I "feel" it every moment since my last fill. I feel the tightness not the band itself.

Is it normal to feel the LAP-BAND®® inside of you? I can feel mine and thought I'd ask to see if anyone else can feel it..

I felt mine after the surgery for a couple for weeks...especially when I would move.

It was weird and I didn't like it.

But now I don't feel it at all.

My port is a little sore once in awhile, but that's it.

I've read that once it scars in place you stop feeling it.

I feel it in the morning when I first wake up. After I have some Fluid and move around the sensation goes away.

I don't feel it at all, not right after surgery, and not during my first fill either. The only time I even know its there is if I actually eat something that doesn't go down well.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
