Tell you Dr and go back to the diet you are supposed to be on. The post-op diet is for healing of your stomach, and you can increase the risks of problems occurring by eating normally because your stomach is not supposed to be churning to digest right now. This churning can cause sutures to pop and pre-disposes the band to easier slips.

I am kinda likea tell it like it is kinda girl, so here it goes. Why would you go thru all this to get banded to screw it up in a week you can strech your stomach too. If you can not get a handle on it now the band will not do you any good so buck up and follow the rules.. Sorrry if i hurt your feelings but i say it like i see it..

      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.
