Banded 5 days ago



Recommended Posts

Hi I was banded 5 days ago and the first 2 days I could barely drink anything. I was told to drink slowly and about 2 oz per hr. I have been doing that but now I want more than 2 oz because I'm so hungry!!! Is this normal??

It is. Drink more. Just don't guzzle.

And you will be hungry till you get a fill that gives you restriction. Until then it's just another diet. Bet no one told you about that did they?

Drink as much as you want. You will be hungry its normal. Now is the time to get strong, find other things to do with your time then think about food. It will be over in no time and you will be on to normal life.

Omg thanks for telling me this I felt like I was committing a crime by drinking a little extra and yes ur absolutely right I was not informed of when I was gonna get a fill I was automatically assuming they I was already filled and that I was not gonna be hungry

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
