I'm so happy to read that others are hungry too.

Hello everyone...I am 6 days post op and on the liquid diet. I have had sugar free jello' date=' sugar free ice pops, clear broths and yesterday I tried Protein drinks. I have just a little soreness but I am out of the house and mobile.

Unfortunately, I am hungry. I know I dont have a fill yet but i really thought I would have no hunger twinges. Is anyone else experiencing this? and what are you doing to cope?[/quote']

I just got banded on yesterday . Everything went well . I thought I wasn't going to experience hunger pains either . But I am . I'm 1 day post op and I'm have a Lil gas pain . It seems like I can't lay down all the way to get comfortable.

I still have gas ...but not as much since day three....it will get better...use a heating pad ..helped me..I propped my pillows up pretty high and laid at an angle....once the gas subsides you will be able to rest easier...stay strong!

      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.
