Hello All, As you all know I just recently had the lap-band done and I have a question, Right now I am in the puree stage and I find myself eating more than I thought I would be eating! Is it because I streched my pouch? this is worrying me. For example today I ate a whole can of tuna fish with mayo for lunch at 1:30. Then at around 5:00pm I ate a salad bowl full of puree eggs, Later that evening at around 9:00pm I was really hungry. I was so hungry that I was in pain! So I had the same thing again (the salad bowl full of eggs). I wonder if this is normal! If anyone knows if it is please tell me. I really hope I didnt strech my pouch! Daniel

My surgeron is having me have the ABG ..from the artery. I am not looking forward to it at all. Any advice or suggestions? Did u have to have it done also? I am looking for input on the reasoning behind this stupid test..it seems to me like these people are getting money hungry and ordering every test in the book! I am looking for answers.. Heather
