I was banded Jan 25, and for the past few days i've been getting the hiccups (usually just 1 or two at a time) but they hurt like all mothers, haha. anyone else experience this? And is it going to damage or make my band slip?

Not sure when my first fill is, i'll find out when I go in for my appointment this week I think... I went back to work yesterday, and ended up leaving 3 hours into my shift today.. For some reason i'm having a lot of pain in my port area today. Not to sure whats going on, but i'm taking it considering I haven't had much pain for the whole thing.

That's right try putting a ice bag on the part where your port is! It helps !;)

I have the hiccups too, usually at very random times or when I am moving around like after a shower. Doc said they were normal and to keep up on my pain meds.

hiccups is one of my soft stop signals when eating and if I ignore it I wind up having a stuck episode.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
