yes, very normal. The swelling from surgery has gone down and things are settling so it's very normal. Hang on during your mash/purée stage and when you get onto normal food dry and crunchy all the way with filling foods to keep off the hunger.
Many people believe having a band placed takes away the hunger and that isn't always the case, despite 14 months on and all of my fills I've had, the hunger is commonplace and it takes a lot of willpower not to give in to it. This can also depend on the levels of ghrelin we produce (hunger hormone) which the band, unlike other surgeries isn't taken away.
