you won't have any restriction yet. fluids and swelling from surgery won't help😉
when I first had my band I didn't lose anything much till my first fill.

Do you have a lap band? You might not lose straight away as you could be holding water and be swollen. I would call your surgeon and get in earlier. try not to panic

I was wondering if it's normal to not lose weight in the first few days. I assume I should be because Im only on liquids. I am struggling to drink 2L water plus the 250ml of different liquid per hour. I don't see my surgeon for another 3 weeks. Can someone off any advise?
