Me too I can't eat as much but I can eat ! I tend to get super hungry and wolf it down .

I just banded a week ago. I had gastric bypass 14 yrs ago but drank some of it back on. Surgery is a tool. Helps with the capacity, not the compulsion. Now I have to stay away from alcohol and it's hard. Good luck. Guess if my self- esteem was better I would feel better. Still am a smart ass fat chick at heart. Kiss of death for relationships . :-(

Lump underneath my biggest incision
mwsing replied to Calista Burage's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I saw my doc sat I'm one week out he said there was water around the incision so it's hot and hard right now and to ice it it 4x a day for 20 minutes, seems to help. -

This is good to know, maybe upping protein will help the hunger? I have my surgery next we'd , getting nervous! -
my surgeon only required 1 day liquid diet but I had to lose weight through a required program to get approved. Lost about 20 lbs.
