:help:Today is day nine after banding and I am suddenly quite hungry. I go tomorrow for my post op and they are going to switch me to the pureed or mushies diet. I feel like I could go to the kitchen and eat a sandwich!! Of course I wont. But does anyone have any suggestions for tonight? I am fighting the impulse!!

Okay so maybe I'm over exaggerating but this "feels" odd for some reason. Not sure if it's the gas pain or what but let me tell you whatI'm feeling. If I lie flat for a little while and I go to get up I feel the port or something sort of like drop or fall or move. I don't know what the heck it is. Can anyone shed any light on this area for me???? Also does anyone know if lying on my side is okay??? These probably sound like the most ridiculous questions ever and I apologize but I'm just a little anxious!! Tanks for your input.....

After you start your muchies and solids you will feel alot better but until then i would try the sugerfree pops like eddie said. And maybe try to get in a little more Protein.

</p> <p>I had no problems laying on my side. And i was never told not to. I guess let your your body tell you. if it hurt don't but if not go ahead. And as far as feeling anything move i guess i didn't but it did not take long for me to find my port. When you find it it really feels kinda strang like a really large egg. I would of never thought it would feel so big. Hope this helps!!!!</p> <p> </p> <p>Stacy</p>

man i could NOT lay on either side until about seven days out (both times) I think its normal. Ive always been really sensitive on my sides anyway before this.

As for post band/pre fill hunger known as bandster hell, , Protein!!!! high Protein Shakes, Protein power, tofu, eggs, mushed Beans, anything high protein will definitely help your hunger cravings. load up on protein early in the day and it will help keep you from grazing during your day. Good Luck!!!
