Wish I could help you but I will have my first fill here in 2 weeks anyways good luck and keep us posted

I did 3 days clear liquids then full liquid up to 2 wks post op, then mushies, and the past week I've been doing soft foods I should be introducing solids slowly up to week 6. I have been doing protein shakes also I noticed that if I dont take them am hungrier than when I take them.

Im 4 weeks post op and have lots about 17 pounds and im stuck there. However, I've been getting really hungry the past few days, im not due for my adjustment until 2 more weeks. My concern is that I don't feel any restriction what so ever when I eat. I have been eating soft foods mainly in small quantities but Im afraid my band slipped since is am not getting as full as before or feel any restriction. I do get the feeling of fullness eventually and I stop eating. I haven't had no abdominal pain or any other problems, only mild heartburn occasionaly. Is this normal? How can I know my band is ok??

I think the longer on full liquids the better your band will heal and better results. Im hoping to stay on full liquids as long as possible i've only added protein shakes and thats helped my head hunger... Hang in there

I've kept the doctors orders so far but i understand where you coming from my adviced is start again and keep doing what you're suppost to. I keep telling my self there will be better days over and over again

I was banded on July 9th and am so lucky I I haven't been hungry but emitially it has been really hard my whole family eats like there's no tomorrow and is so hard not to eat right along with them like all of them...
