[tko7 0]

Hi,

I was banded on 9/27 - and would really appreciate to have a buddy through this process.

Having a rough time with head hunger - and then the next day - I don't even want to eat a bite, or even drink a drop of Water..

Is this normal?

Thanks for your help..

I have found that every day brings new challenges with the band. I tend to take one day at a time now, instead of trying to pre plan how I might feel. So, I guess yes....for me this I would consider normal. On the days where I find myself not interested in Water, I literally have to keep the water out and measure my foods to make sure I consume enough. I am in the Sacramento area too....if you ever want to chat, I would be very willing to do so. Hang in there!
