K6TYX 8 Posted June 23, 2012 Hi all, I was banded on 3rd June 12, i am now a week into my mushies...poached eggs...fish...mashed potato ect. For the last 2 days I have had a strange feeling when i stand up and walk around, It's asthough I can feel the band inside me and also feel bloated and a bit of pain if I try to pull my stomach in. I wondered if anyone else has experienced this and if its common??? I'm a little scared that I may have eaten too much, although I use a tea plate for meals. Or is it something that may be 'stuck'. Any advice would be helpful x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PandorasBox92264 61 Posted June 23, 2012 I have felt that myself and I am not newly banded. I did notice it seemed to hit more when I stood up vs sitting down. Double check your Water intake, and you could have some swelling going on.. I notice it more after I get a fill, and it could just be agitated. I have found that it goes away... then with a fill it can come back for a short time.. follow the diet, get in the fluids but if it is uncomfortable talk to the doctor about it.

honk 780 Posted June 23, 2012 I was still on full liquids day 11; stayed on full liquids until day 15. It's possible your personal biology needs more time on liquids. Canned fish was a mushie for me but I did not get that until day 22. Days 15-21 were soft mushies yogurt, low fat/cal cottage or ricotta. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K6TYX 8 Posted June 23, 2012 Thank you, i am terrible with drinking my fluids, maybe it.s that. Honk, the foods differ sooooo much! I wish there was just one plan to follow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
