I'm 5 months out and I feel totally normal. I often forget that the band is there at all until I take a bite that's too big and it's uncomfortable for a minute. To me, it feels like I'm just on a diet that's going really well!

i'm 3 years post-op and i feel 100% better.

the only time i feel anything is if my jeans push against or under my port while i'm sitting... or if i sit too close to my desk at work and lean against my port.

other than that, i don't have any feeling of being banded.

I am at three and two thirds months out and I feel great. I am reminded that I have a band if I fail to chew completely or try to eat too quickly. I also feel my port if I am wearing my tighter jeans (totally worth it, they are a size 10) and I tried to use my belly this weekend to push in a shopping cart - it was not awful, but I could feel it. I think that I had most of my energy back at about six weeks.

Overall, I would do it again in a minute.
