Hey everyone! I have had a rough journey with my band so far! I got banded 10/21/14 then got a port infection (which hurt like hell by the way!) I was on antibiotics for 4 weeks and had to push gross stuff out of the incision EW! I still haven't had a fill. I have gone from 350 to 328lbs but now I am at a stand still. I have zero restrictions and pretty much able to eat anything although I try to pay attention. Last night I think I ate a bit too much but no nausea but then I got this strange pain in my lower abdomen, it feels like I've done a bunch on sit ups. I've taken gas x but it hasn't gone away. It is uncomfortable and is worse when I stand up a little better when I am sitting or laying down. Has this occurred for anyone else?! I'm a little scared with everything that has happened to me so far!

Called my doctor and he told me to go to ER. Waiting on my results from blood work and CT

Good luck. Let us know how it goes.

No PE possible infection but my surgeon doesn't think so. I was given ibuprofen for inflammation I feel a lot better, still just doing liquids because it's still very tight when I swallow. Not sure what caused all this trouble but my lesson has been learned about overeating!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
