casino2595 0 Posted June 6, 2009 Hi, I'm Jose. I just got banded 5 days ago. I'm still sore from it. Other than that I'm just plain ol hungry, and sick of the liquid only diet. I hope to lose alot of weight, I have a few friends that had it done and had success with it. So we'll see how it goes with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dgs1963 0 Posted June 6, 2009 Hello Jose, I was banded on 6/3/09 and I understand what you are saying about being hungry. The Protein Drinks do seem to help me. Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elcee 3,341 Posted June 6, 2009 I was done 2nd. Not really hungry yet. In the morning it takes quite a while to get to the point where I want to eat but have been having Protein Drink or yogurt drink as I know I need it. I am finding that later in the day I can eat a bit more but at this point the Soup and stuff is enough to satisfy me. A couple of times I have had the shakes so then I just drink fruit juice.

Snowball 0 Posted June 6, 2009 Hang in there it will get better. Try to have at least 70 grams of Protein a day and that will help you feel better and have more energy. I was banded May 22nd and lost 20 pounds from the 10 day pre-op and 10 day post-op. I had last 41 before I started that so I am now at 61 pounds down and about 100 to go:w00t: hahahahahaha.............sounds bad when I say it like that. Just keep focused and GOOD LUCK!
