Hunger or Something Else?

* whoops just realized I posted this in preop.

I was banded on Oct 12 (down 15 lbs so far) and I am having a difficult time figuring out what is hunger and what is discomfort from the band and the procedure. I can only describe my stomach as feeling like I have a constant state of indigestion. Eating does not make the feeling go away. Am I suppossed to be timing my eating or just waiting until I am hungry? I haven't been truly hungry since the morning of my procedure and I'm inclined to just not injest any thing. Thoughts on this?

BTW - How do I add a weight tracker?

That is a good question. I was banded 10/21 and I have no desire to eat. But I am really bloated from gas.
