So day 3 post band is nearly over. Rough day today with wind pain and the old constipation, was agony. Won't go into details but feel much better now things have moved along!!!!!!!!! Having slimfast, yoghurts, soup and puree prunes during the day. Not feeling very hungry though at the moment. Every day my stomach feels easier so must be mending. Hope everyone else is doing ok who had their ops this week. Take care xx

Aww you've given me hope. I was banded last night and the wind pain is awful hope it eases soon. Glad your on the mend xx

Hi Laura
Every day is easier and I feel a bit hungry which I've been told is a good sign that things are healing. The only pain I have is that awful wind and a bit sore over the port site but otherwise ok. I'm taking everything possible for wind, deflatine, gripe water and peppermint tea, heard the wind can last for ages!
How are you feeling today? Just rest and make sure you drink and eat enough. Got the shakes a couple of days ago as only managed around 300 cals so made more effort with slimfast etc yesterday. Take care and keep in touch xx
