Still kind of sore but OMG I feel sooooo much better. I'm able to kick the pain meds and use liquid Tylenol. I'm not gonna lie I'm ready for Mushies cuz I am starving!!!! I'm not cheating though.

That gives me hope' date=' I'm just fresh off the slice & dice table today .... Hoping this gets easier (I know it will). Cheers to us & our fresh bands!!![/quote'] give it a few days!!! The worst part for me now is sleeping cuz I'm a stomach sleeper and it's still too tender to do that.

I was banded 3 days ago and I am starving today. The liquids are not satisfying me. I want some taco salad or mashed potatoes or something. This is a battle today.

I've been hungry the entire time! Only time I'm ok is if I drink some Isopure, but it comes back shortly after.

don't lose this battle. you are three days out and it would not be good for you to each food unless your doctor allows it. hang in there...go out, do something to get your mind off food. this is no not the time to make a bad decision. good luck and stay strong!

Sorry you're having a hard day. Vegetable broth helps keep me satisfied, but I know everyone's different. Hang in there! You can do this!!!

      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.
