Frangipani

Oops!

I just realized that I misread your post. You just got a fill NOT surgery. Well, good luck getting through the liquid phase. As you probably know by now, the hunger is totally worth it.

LOL at your post, which is why I responded to it :smile::thumbup:

Hi Minipinmom,

Congrats on being banded!

LOL, I know exactly what cat food commercial you were watching -- Fancy Feast Elegant Medleys, and my two cats (aged 19 and 2) are here to tell you that your mouth should be watering!

In fact they both recommend that you eat this wonderful food exclusively during your mushy phase. The herbs help a lot with hairballs too! :smile::thumbup:

I was also starving right after my surgery -- so I feel your pain. Unfortunately there's really not a lot that can be done about it, that I know of. I considered it to be a good sign that my body tolerated the new band and the surgery well. I wish I had some suggestions for you during the liquid phase, but I really don't. I just ate lots of sugar-free Jello, and tried to make my broths as tasty as possible.

The good news is that this hunger will all be worth it. I can just about guarantee that you will be thrilled with your rapid weight loss during this phase.

Good luck!
