di1138 8 Posted August 26, 2008 I was banded on 8/22 and am happy to say everything went well! I have had very little pain. I am still tired but know that will pass when I get more nutrition. Right now I am on Protein Shakes and liquids. I am so thirsty. I really want a long drink of Water but have been good sipping. When I have swallowed too much I get minor discomfort. Since I seem to fill up quickly I am finding it hard to get enough water and shakes in. Any suggestions? How long do you go between sips? Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beth443 0 Posted August 26, 2008 I was banded the 22 too. I was so thirsty for around two days. I drank all the time. I tried to get in 48 oz of liquids and 2 8 oz shakes. I don't wait long between sips. If I sip to fast my chest lets me know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
