Gurgling and Golf Balls

I'm gurgling today. I think my eyes may have been a little bigger than my stomach at lunch today. I know when my band is working because I can literally feel a golf ball sized hard spot in my upper abdomen. I know the food is supposed to sit there for a while, but today it feels like it's sitting there for a particularly long time. I don't feel stuck, but just full. It's not really uncomfortable, but I'm waiting for it to gurgle on down to my lower stomach.

All in all, things are going well. I am about 4 weeks out from surgery and I have been meticulous in following the eating guidelines. No pop, I only eat three meals a day with no snacking and I am getting good protein amounts every day. I have lost 12 pounds since surgery or about an average of 3 pounds per week. That's awesome, I really need to remember that...sometimes it seems to be going so slow, I have a real problem with patience, I want it all right now. I'm doing great, just need to keep it up.
