  16. monday 9/12 is band day. Right now I am starving, as well as nervous. Today I"ve been reading the threads. Someone posted that they was having so many problems with their fill. These fill stories begin me to worry. When should I begin to worry about my fill? Will my band be filled after surgery or when? My hunger is so overwhelming right now. What can you do to ride this liquid storm over. My dietician have informed me to add jello and pudding in to my diet, but my gluclose is still dropping at nite. I hope I am not to weak on monday, for the surgery. If anyone have any answers, or thoughts on the starvation, and fills please respond soon. In Nedd of Answers.
