Eating too much- stitch in Side

[CincyUdy 35]

Ok, I was banded Feb 28th and I am still trying to get a handle on my eyes bigger than my stomach issue. Lately since my first fill if I eat too much then I get a cramp in my left side. Feels kind of like a cramp you would get from running or something. Anyone else experience this and if so what is it from???

I get the same thing! But for me it can be in either side, I too think it is from eating too much, but now sure how it applies? Good to know I am not the only one!

My banding was twenty days after yours. What is your secret to rapidly loosing weight? When did you receive your first fill?

32311- Not sure if you are talking to me or Candice but anyway here is my story...

My secret is.... maybe a little deceiving. I had to do a 6 month supervised diet for insurance so I started my journey last October at 286lbs and from there I lost about 10 lbs. So I started my 2 week pre op dier around 275 and lost 11 lbs during that. So technically I have lost 19 since surgery. It was all will power till my first fill where I felt restriction for about a week and a half and then not much. Now after my seconf fill I am noticing I have a hard time eating anyting unless I chew chew chew, which is what you are supposed to do so that is good!!!

So glad to hear I am not the only one. I was thinking something was wrong for a little bit so it makes me feel better knowing there are also people out there that get this crampy feeling if they over eat!!

I was banded 2/18 and I get the exact same thing, but I can usually only feel it when I stand up. I thought I was the only one, but apparently we all feel it. And it really does feel exactly like a runner's cramp.

I was told when I had my sugery if you eat to much or feel like something is stuck to lean to the left and it actually helps. I get that pain also. I

I'm back on the boards bc I have been super stressed and have derailed from my exercise and eating habits.

I needed a reality check as to why I went through all the steps to get this done & need to get back to working the band. Any help is appreciated!
