Thanks guys! I was wondering if it was head hunger at first but felt it really wasnt because my tummy is majorly growling. I cheated on my liquids today and had the tinyest bit of mashed potatoes and omg they were the best thing i've ever had. After that I felt really guilty and have been doing better ever since, back to my tomato soup with melted cheese for protein. Your right Paula when I have some protein i find myself in a better mood and physically able to perform better. I was wondering about the weight issue, today my sclae read 4 lbs heavier than yesterday!!!! I almost had a heart attack! Thanks for letting me know it's not about that right now. I thought this would be a great time for me to drop a big amount of weight before being filled or going back on solids...thanks for the support you guys are great!!!

Hey guys! Congrats on being banded Veronica!!! What is TJ you speak of and have most of you on this site been taken care of by Dr. Ortiz? Just wondering, kinda catching up on the info if you know what i mean.. btw, i ate some Soup today and felt like i swallowed a bowling ball...how weird..it hasnt even been affecting me normally.... Katie:confused:

That is hysterical! Now I wont be able to watch without thinking about the drinking game! LOL Thanks for the chuckle! Katie

Hi there! My name is Katie and i'm 23 years old from Ky. I was "banded" 7 days ago today!!!! I am feeling great but looking for support so I have people to go through this 'with' me! I hope to get to know most of you and maybe even give a little advice myself once i'm far enough out. I'm just a newbie still... Hope to talk to you all soon Katie :kiss

What a great warm welcome!! thank you so much, I'm really glad I found this site. I could sit and read for hours and hours and catch up on all the posts I havent read, but i'd never get to sleep. I really am trying not to overdue, but i'm 7 days out and honestly i'm hungry. Only certain times, like if I havent had anything to drink for awhile, so I try to have some Soup or Water (getting burnt out already ) to keep something 'in there'. This weekend i get to move to mushy foods so I'm very excited about some mashed potatoes!!! Did any of you guys experience this or anything similar? Do you think it's because I havent had a fill? It's very weird to feel this way and any advice would be appreciated!!! Katie
