Hi everyone,
I was just banded on Aug 5th, 2005 by Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Martiinez. It was a piece of cake. I was up and walking around, had no gas issues and slight disconfort at the port site. I have lost a total of 20 lbs including ( 7lb loss prior to surgery). My concern is, I'm eating solids now find myself eating almost as much as I was before the banding. I have to think to stop eating when I feel slightly full. But, I do have lots of hunger pains most of the day. Will this get beter? I know I'm not adjusted yet, but I'm afraid I will start gaining weight. Can anyone advise me?
Other than that, I'm so happy!
Liana
