  1. I too was not prepared for the hunger that I am feeling already. I was banded one week ago, and find that the hunger at times is overwhelming! My doctor has me on liquids until the end of this week, but I have had a little cottage cheese and some yogurt to try and squelch the hunger. I have not heard of the 4 ounces every 30 minutes - sounds like a good plan if it is a good food for you Maybe you should give your surgeon a call and tell them of the problems you are having......
  2. I was banded June 4 and am on my way to work this morning too. I wish I had taken another week off. Good luck on your journey -
  3. Just had my lapband surgery Yesterday. We can do it!
  4. My date is next Tuesday, June 4. I was feeling pretty good about it, but now that I am on pre-op diet, my mind is really racing with wild ideas - do I really need to do this, why cant i just diet, do I even need to diet, what is wrong with life the way it is? etc., etc., I could use some prayers and some strength.
