Give it time. If you just got the fill yesterday give your band a chance to settle.

It took almost 2 weeks this last time. I could only sip Water or it hurt, and I lost 8 lbs the first week; then nothing. I am hoping to keep it going by doing a day of liquids and moving more. Hunger is not an issue for me so my problem is getting in the right things in the right way. It's cold and all I want is Hot Chocolate!

You can have hot chocolate. There are diet and sugar free even can top it off with ff whip topping. I think swiss miss has a 25calorie one. Enjoy!

I love making homemade hot cocoa....skim milk, Splenda and real cocoa...mmmmm. I will use lactose free skim milk to lower the sugars. Just some suggestions for being cold and enjoying the hot cocoa...

      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.
