4 days and hungry?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone I was banded on Monday and have only had Clear Liquids. I'm at a point where I'm sorta hungry. This afternoon I had about 2/3 or sf ff Jello. But all I want right now is something of substance! I know I need to just keep strong and the will power is why I got this surgery because I have it, but does or did anyone else feel this way?

We have all been/are hungry. Your body can not survive without hunger. Even at restriction you are still going to get hungry.

Don't know if your Dr. ever showed you this, but the "Green Zone" is where you will want to be, eventually.....

You just had surgery...there is not much you can do but count your calories, diet, etc....

It took me 4-5 months and a few band adjustments to get to where my hunger was brought under control....

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
