Eating mushies question.

Hello, I was banded on 1/6/11 and my swollen stomach is still there it went down allittle but now when I " eat" my stomach gets huge I tried gas x etc...Has this happen to anyone else? And does it go down? I called my dr. Office they said give it a week and call back as long as I am not in pain but I told them only where my port is it's sore. They said that's normal. But I just am worried that when I start eating normal next week about the swollen stomach it's very uncomfortable. And I lost around 18/20 pounds and you can't even tell I look pregnant. Well please post if this happen to you!! Thank you.

The gas sticks around a while, just walk, and burp haha. You are eating only like 1/4-1/2 cup food right, and slowly?
