Thats a good question. I have only been banded for 2 days, so I would also like to know the answer.

OK, I am so glad I feel so good, but it seems a little weird since there are a lot of posts on here about the pain. I also had a hernia repair and got the iband. I am a little sore and my shoulder hurts a little bit from gas, but it is nothing major. I have been up walking quite a few times tonight. My question though, is I seem ok to drink as much Water and Gatorade as I want. Is this normal? I haven't even really had to take sips. Also, tomorrow I go on liquid clear foods, plus Protein shake. Do I eat Breakfast and sip on a Protein shake all day or is the protein shake considered my breakfast? Thanks in advance!

I had my surgery yesterday and I feel pretty good. Today I am suppose to eat 3 small meals of broth, etc. Then the nurse mentioned drinking a Protein shake and that it may take me all day to get down. Do I add this shake in addition to the 3 meals, or as a replacement? Yesterday I drank all day without any issues. Is that normal or should I feel in fullness with liquids? I appreciate any help you can give. I would call my dr but I don't think they are open today. Thanks!

Thanks. I am not limited on liquids. All of these responses helped!

I am getting mine tomorrow. I am also using true Results with Dr. Snow.

I'm getting mine tomorrow too! I am very excited. Not as nervous as I thought I would be.
