Last few days I have been getting bad gas pains that won’t go away. I just ate 2 anti gas tablets and no go. I just started my soft food stage and only had 1 meat so far but this started back in the puree period. Are I just hungry and its causing this as my stomach makes some pretty crazy noises or is it something more? Also I have not had my first fill yet. Still 2 weeks away from that appointment.

Forgive me for being forward but are you moving your bowels regularly? I have read many people have to take stool softeners. But it could be that you are just hungry. I know my stomach really hurts when I'm hungry. Sometimes I think it's gas pains but after I eat something or drink my Protein Shake it goes away. From what I am told this is what is called 'Banders Hell'. It's the time between your surgery and your first fill.

Ya I’m as regular as I can be. I do think it is due to be being hungry. The anti acid worked for a while and it came back. I had lunch and it went away but now it as returned and my stomach is growling like crazy. I see you are from LEH I’m in Gloucester Twp.

More then likely it's the hunger pains. I get really bad pains when I'm hungry. It's a different kind of hungry pains then before I was banded.

You are my neighbor. That's cool. When did you have your surgery?
