I had mine on Monday and I am still real sore. I am also having trouble getting even Water down. I had 3cc in my band, so They had to remove some liquid from my band the second day and it made me feel more sick at my stomach. I hope it doesn't last to long.

Although I am wearing my girdle now and that seams to help with the pain some!

I hope you feel better soon!

I had mine Monday as well. I'm pretty sore still too. I did work today but I do work from home on the computer. I haven't taken a pain pill since yesterday since I had to work and my oldest son is home and in a lower leg cast and my youngest son stayed home with a severe upper respiratory infection. I had to take care of them. I feel really really swollen. I am hoping to feel better by the weekend. My band is empty but I still don't really have an appetite. Looking forward to a good nights sleep tonight.

      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.
