Hello my name is Deborah and I live in Reidsville, NC. I just had the lap band done on 08/19, and I seem to be doing really well with it so far. I am only to do liquids, Jello, pudding, Soups, Protein Shakes etc for right now, sometimes I feel really satisfied, but then others I am hungry again, is this normal?? Im tired of feeling hungry.

I am still trying to get rid of the gas thats still inside of me. I wished it would hurry up and go away. I have been walking and on my treadmill, it seems to help some, but not alot. Anyways, im glad I found this site.:smile2:

Welcome to the site Deborah and congrads on your lapband. I was banded only 1 day before you. So I guess we are pretty much going through the same process at the same time. I like yourself am only able to do liquids, Jello, the broth from the soups, and Protein Shakes until Sept.1. But, I'm not suppose to eat pudding. :smile2:

Anyways, I'm glad to hear you are doing well with your recovery.

thats what my doc said it was, they had to put gas in my stomach to expand it to do surgery and I was complaining about my should hurting and he stated that the gas has settled there, and I need to walk or move around as much as possible so I can burp it out. I am to drink 2 ounces of my Protein shake atleast 3 hours apart, but as far as anything else just as long as I can tolerate it, Im good. I have noticed that I am taking more sips of Water than before. I go see my doc on 8/27 I am going to talk to him about the issues im having and see what he thinks from there.
