I was just banded on 11/21/07, I did fine on the clear liquid diet for the first 5 days (guessing since I was still sore and all). My nutrienists said to stay on the clear liquid diet for 5 days since I was returning to work. Today i started the full liquid/pureed food, one problem though I"M HUNGRY!:hungry: Has that happened to anyone? Is this normal? I want food! I paid for this procedure out of pocket so I dont want it to back fire on me. Anyone have ideas, please advise.:cry
