AshB 4 Posted April 25, 2012 I was banded 11 days ago & had a hiatal hernia repaired at the same time so I am still suppose to be eating things that pour off a spoon... And its driving me crazy!! I am so ready to be eating normal food and I feel hungry alot more than I thought I would. I was hoping to wake up from surgery and not be hungry, but instead I woke up & the first thing I said was "dang I'm hungry!". I'm a stay home mom so I'm used to munching throughout the day. I hope things change once I start eating solid food, but I'm worried I will feel this way until I reach my "green zone". I know I am suppose to take it easy and focus on healing, but its hard not to concentrate on the wieght loss too... Since that is why I did this in the first place!

AshB 4 Posted April 25, 2012 My doctor said not to drink Protein Shakes or anything like that because they're just extra calories. But I have seen a lot of other people taking about shakes so some docs must say differently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
