Glad to read you're doing well.

I am still experiencing nausea at odd times throughout the day. I called my surgeon's NP this morning and left a message. I am worried that my body is rejecting the band.

I don't have any hunger either, but I am having unusual food cravings. Tomorrow I get to progress to a new list of foods and can hardly wait to eat some cottage cheese, which isn't a food I have ever craved. If I were craving French fries, pizza, and chocolate, I would understand. :rolleyes:

Hang in there. your body has gone through trauma and it takes a few weeks to start recovering. i was the same, but by the end of the second week i was '' firing on all fours'' . lol. just listen to your body ... rest up, have your liquids as much as you can and time will take care of the rest. Believe me, you are through the worst of 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.
