i had the band put in a few years ago and had to have it removed...just in december i had the band put back in. i had severe complications with the 1st band, i had no Fluid and could not eat anything and barely drink anything. i was in/out of the hospital just to get hydrated. i delt with that issue for almost a year and couldnt deal with it anymore..i suggest going to your dr and making sure there isnt a blockage or slippage in the band..i'm not saying thats what it is. do u remember eating something and it got stuck a few days ago?

so your having your band removed? or Fluid taken out?
The band i haven't had fluid for about 1yer. everthing gets stuck fluid in or fluid out Whe i first had my band in i never had any trouble i lost 150 lbs then the band got to tight and i have been going down hill ever since. They even went back in and fixied a hernia thinking that was the problem for along time all i could drink would be protien drinks and salads That is what i have been doing everyday of my life. Doctors says nothing is wrong with the band i have had a few tests run nothing has happened:confused:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
