You might also try taking them with a warm liquid and/or holding them in your mouth with Water to let them dissolve a bit.

Hey everyone.. i got the band yesterday as well. So lets all keep in touch and share this.. I'm in pain. feeling nausea.. sipping my water.. feeling the gas..the gas bloating is the worst. When that goes away I will feel much better. Just tried to eat some Jello and ended up hacking up phlem. Not sure what that is about or if that is normal. Maybe i ate it to fast. I'm hating this so far. I hope I start feeling better sooner rather then later!

I know it is gross... But I have hacked up some nice stuff too. I think it has to with having the tubes down my throat in combination with prolonged dry mouth. Sorry u are hating it. I feel a lot more tenderness today than I have the last couple if days. I am still just happy that I have finally made it to this point and I am looking forward to feeling all the way better an smaller too!.

      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.
