Marlene

Hi Julie, I was banded on June 4th also. I'm Marlene, my husband was there with me at the OCC for the surgery. I am not having a great time either, and also feeling very nervous. I have only lost 4 pounds since the surgery. Not feeling very restriced either. Worried that for some reason this thing just isn't working. I eat an OK amount, feel slightly full, but an hour or two later I am straving. This is the first that I have come on-line. We were in the midst of a move, so I just got the computer hooked up. My stomch is still bothering me some from the surgery, and also is still somewhat swollen, how about you? I'm wondering if this is normal?
