I was banded on the 17th and i am miserable as well! I wish I wanted food. I don't want anything but to crawl up and die! I have soooo much nausea! I want to throw up ALL the time. I ve lost 37 pounds in 16 days and I dont even care.

Call your doc ASAP ! Seriously. There are drugs to give you to help that, and if you DO vomit this early in the game you MAY (note I said MAY) do damage to your healing band. Don't just suffer, call your doc.

Are you on mushies yet? I was very nausiated the first 10 days post surgery but felt much better after I started mushies.

Thanks John! Not suppose to be on mushies yet. BUT, I actually ate a little cream of wheat this morning and it seems to be helping a little.

so glad you posted this thread. I was banded on the 19th. Today is the first day I have felt like having anything at all. I took broth from progresso veggie Soup and at that warm which helped. I imagine I am going to feel the same as you in a couple more days...HUNGRY lol. Now if I could just get rid of this gas pains...I have been walking, taking my gas-x strips, using the heating pad, and putting my arms over my head...any other suggestions? My hubby mad frozen pizza for dinner last night...never thought I would be jealous of the smell lol

If I never see another Protein shake again, it will be too soon! Fortunately I have found a way to get my Protein in without drinking another shake.

Isopure is a clear Protein Drink that comes in lots of flavors. My fav is Blue Raspberry. the 20oz bottle has 40g of Protein. I buy it at GNC.

unjury makes a chicken broth flavored Protein powder that has 21g of protein per scoop. A lot more than just a cup of regular chicken broth. I'm at the mushie stage now, so I add it to mashed potatoes and blended Soups to increase the protein count. You can order it online at unjury.com

I get my protein in by drinking Isopure Protein Drinks as well. My favorite is Apple Melon and Peach Mango. I also add some crystal light to it to give it a kool-aid mixed flavor:biggrin:..I get mines from Vitamin World.

If it makes you feel better.. I had my surgery on Thrusday the 18th.. had to do Clear Liquids until Sunday (yesterday) and i get to eat Proteins a cooked vegis for the next 30 days. We aren't allow any carbs for 30 days... Anyway I ate cottage cheese today and hit hurts and is making me feel sick. I would rather be on liquids if I am going to feel like this eating...So hang in there. I think your dr's way is better then allowing to eat 4 days out.
