Hello there I had my surgery 4 days ago, is it normal to not have any hunger sensations or the desire to eat at all? I thought I would still want to chew something even though I was on liquids but ?I have no desire to eat at all.

That's normal...your stomach is still swollen from your surgery...I didn't care if I ate or drink...but it's important to constantly sip so you don't get dehydrated ! Happy healing :-)

I was banded the same day.. My Dr told me to liquid diet till I "felt hungry" then to go to soft foods .. I had 1 soft meal yesterday and 2 today.. It is probably normal that you haven't felt hunger yet, I'd say make sure to have a Protein Shake or something if you're not hungry but do for a meal

I was banded on the 7th and am on Clear Liquids until I see my doctor on the 16th. Throughout this past week my family has eaten every food under the sun that I would want and even though it smells good I canny imagine eating it! I still have so much gas I don't want anything to eat! I hope that he at least allows me to move to full liquids by next week !

      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.
