Am I getting enough nourishment?

I literally eat a protein shake in the a.m., bowl of soup or broth for lunch, 2 sf jellos, and tons of water. I have to make myself eat. Food does not hold the fascination it used to for me. I have yet to be filled yet! I am losing 1lb a day on average. Normally I would be estatic but I am worried. If I am losing this much without a fill, what will happen when when the band is filled? Will I starve to death? I am not trying to be overly dramatic but don't want to kid myself either. Don't get me wrong I am happy to have taken this step but don't want other problems. How do other people handle this? What do others eat on the regular? Help!

Ditto - It's 2pm and all I've had today is coffee, a protein shake and a glass of Crystal Lite. I have an 11cc Realize band(no fill yet) and I've lost a pound since yesterday. I hope I have some say in how much fill I get, because while I'm looking forward to reaching my goal, I don't want to become a pseudo-anorexic!

WheW! I thought it was just me - Thanks for your post Jax! I was getting nervous. So for lunch I went to Panera bread and had chicken soup and a smoothie. Wrong move drinking the smoothie with chicken soup. I got too full - oh well live and learn
