It has been a week and now I am hungry all the time. At first I was so full. Can I eat one week after the band?

I was in the same boat as you! Follow your doctor's orders. My doctor's post op diet is...1 week Clear Liquids, 1 week full liquids, 1 week soft food and then real food. When you go in for your check up, let them know you are hungry. My doctor allowed me to advance to soft food as tolerated at my 1 week check up. They let you advance on as well. Or you could call the office and talk to them about it.

Are you on clear liquids or full liquids? You need to get some Protein in your system so you aren't hungry. Make sure you are drinking your Protein supplements. Try some sugar free ice pops. I lived on them. Don't advance to soft until you ask your doctor because you could get stuck. Sometimes they will let you advance if you are having problems.
