Hi I had surgery on June 29, let me tell you jello and broth did nothing for me. Happy 4 Th of July!! I needed a good protein drink to help me feel full and some what normal. I have not had too much hunger I am only 6 days out. I feel much better than day 3. Everyday gets so MUCH better. I have had the dizzy stuff as well. I am not in Orlando area but am heading that way in a week or so. Lets Keep in touch if you want. Kathy imaluckydog

Day 3 or 4 was the worst with feeling weak. Get a good protein shake. This will do two things. It will give you calories you need to stay strong and the high protein will help with hunger. Liquids are not going to "fill" you up. You will be able to drink all day long. Liquids go right through the band. Hang in there. Stay hydrated and drink calories so you can heel. There will be time to watch your liquid calories after you are eating.
