Hi, I was banded on March 24th and It is really hard for me to get in the Protein Shakes and the 2 oz of food between the shakes because I am not hungry, yet my stomach makes all kinds of noises throughout the day. I have heard others say this is normal..... actually I feel like I an hear and feel Water sliding down like a funnel, strange:blush:

I was banded on the 27th too and feel the same. ALOT of funny noises are coming from my belly, but I have no appetite. I eat B/C I know I have too, but really no sense hunger. It is strange, I thought it might be B/C "TOM" came to visit, but maybe not now that I read your post.

I had the exact same thing just after I was banded. Your stomach as a lot of air in it. Based on what your consuming that would make since. What I remember is when my stomach growled it hurt. That eventually went away and now it rarely happens. (since I always eat every three hours). Good luck

      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.
