Surgery on Friday, 21st...Anyone else?

KD8888 · September 27, 2007

Hello new-bandsters, I was wondering if you are hungry before it is time to eat. My nutrition protocol is to eat proper Protein source every 5 hours period. I may snack in between on sugar popsicles or Jello, but I find that I get hungry in between. It isn't head hunger either, its the rumbling in the tummy kind. I have been following directions, but I'd like to know that I've got some buddies out there in my situation. Therefore, we shall struggle together.

Darr,

I was banded on 9/24 and I'm hungry too. I'm adding Protein to liquid 3 times a day, but I still may not be getting enough protein. I tried to add it to Tomato Soup yesterday, but it just clumped. Are you having any luck adding it to heated liquids?

I haven't tried adding it to warm meals. I drink protein shakes: Slim Fast Low Carb, unjury. I was told I could eat Soup, so I bought Cambells soup in hand creamy chicken. THis seems to help but I still have grumbling in the tummy, just not as often. I think its getting a little better. How do you feel?

I think I'm going to have chocolate Unjury and skim milk for a while.
