It happens. Be good, eat what your doc tells you to eat. You may be hungry until you get a fill that gives you some restriction.

Yep, we've all been there, done that.lol

Evidentually it will get better, but until then like TMF said, stick to Drs plans and fill those hunger pangs with Water, sf hot chocolate, decafe tea or any other allowable Fluid.< /p>

Good Luck!

I was banded on 12/21 and I was told Clear Liquids the first day then liquid I can fit through a straw after that and I have been having Tomato Soup made with Water and its so much more filling than the broth. I have just been mixing it up. I've lost 12 lbs so far. Good luck.

I am with you on the hungry and bored with what I'm allowed to eat. I had surgery on 12-26-12 and can't wait to feel not hungry. We will survive but it sucks right now.

Desotogirl, I'm with you. I'm only 7 days post-op, had the band placed on 12/27/12. I just started mushies today and was thrilled! Hang in there!

Some variation to try - French onion Soup, mushroom broth, the liquid from ramen noodles. With all of these I just added 1/4 cup to 3/4 cup of chicken broth. They don't have enough Protein on their own but did change up the taste of the chicken broth.

Man oh man oh man I don't envy you at all! I would make a mushy and thin it out with milk until it was a liquid.

Favorite: ricotta cheese, applesauce and Protein powder with milk.

Or add a teaspoon of cream of rice to your shake!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
