Harrier's Woman 58 Posted October 7, 2012 It's done. I'm officially banded as of yesterday. The pain hasn't been that bad. Surgery went smoothly and I'm a little sore. So, my question is what happens now? When do you start feeling like yourself? When do the fills start? So ready to get this weight off but we're going to do this the healthy way. 1 Maddysgram reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

htown_chic2002 5 Posted October 7, 2012 The day after was much better than the day of, I was banded Thursday Oct 4. Today though, I've had bad indigestion all day long. Gas X no longer helps and it's the only hell I'm feeling. It's like hunger pains and indigestion all at the same time. Idk what to do to get relief. :-( I hope to feel better by Monday, I'm going back to work and school then. 1 Marybell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harrier's Woman 58 Posted October 7, 2012 I decided to take the week off. My job is stressful enough without being in pain on too. Hope you feel better soon.

wallflower 188 Posted October 7, 2012 My doc won't give me my first fill until 6 weeks postop. I think that's about the norm. Glad all went well. U should be feeling pretty good after about a week as far as soreness. Just take it easy, drink slow, walk 1 Harrier's Woman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
