Well I was banded on July 29, 2013...I am in my first week liquid diet and had already done 2 week pre op liquid diet ...So I havent had food in almost 3 weeks...Dr. Ponce did my surgery and I am very happy with it. However. I am getting tired of broth.. Ugh! I eat the jello, popcicles, broth...everyday...which was my understanding. I am so hungry! I started out at 246 and after pre-op I am 236..and havent weighed since banded..I enjoy being able to talk to everyone on here.....
