Does anyone else notice they have "full" days where they can't eat much and "hungry" days where they can eat well over a cup of they wanted to? I have even starving every 2 hours this last few days and today I had a Protein Shake for Breakfast and tried to drink a cup of coffee, but am so full I feel nauseous just sipping on it. Took well over an hour to get my 12 oz of preteen down.

Yes! I'm almost two weeks post op and I'm having this issue. I haven't had a fill yet, but some days (like today) I can't hardly eat anything. But yesterday I felt like I didn't even have the band at all! Its crazy!

I wonder if it is the Protein Shake. I know we talked last night about me struggling to get all my Protein in. Whatever it is I will take it! :)

It's definitely the Protein Shake for me. If I'm late in drinking one, I'm starving. After I have one, I don't even want to think about food.< /p>

I have definitely been able to eat more and more it seems as the days go by. I still feel full after eating but everything is going down just fine. I just tried a small amount of salad cut up really small and chewed really well and it was good but I am really full now. Probably shouldn't have tried it but I did. Hope everyone else is doing good!

      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.
