I was banded Wednesday and starting Saturday and getting stronger though today I have had hunger pains. Ongoing! My liquids was not handling it! I sucked it up those days, kept doing things right or sleeping it off. Well tonight, day 5 I gave in and had some bites of mashed potatoes and the hunger pains went away. 2 hours later they are starting up again faintly. Am I supposed to be this hungry during the liquid phase?

It's a relief to hear your friend said liquids was the hardest part, because most of what I read people make it sound like a breeze and it's clearly not for me!! I've heard great things about Dr. Bell too! Ok, when my boys go to bed tonight I will share my story on the post you are refering to. I also have my kept my surgery low key! I did this for me, not for the world to have an oppinion about me or to me. My mom and husband know, they are great! 4 of my local girlfriends know because they helped with taking care of my boys and a good support system for me. In a few weeks when we travel to visit various family members I will still be in my special diet phase, so it may come out at some point. I don't mind people know, but there's been no real reason for me to put it out there to them yet.

Just wanted to say hey!!! From Morehead City and was banded Wednesday.
