well, it's great to hear so many people are in the same position as I am. I was banded on the 28th. In the last day or two, I've really started to get really hungry. I can deal with the mental cravings, it's the physical hunger pangs I'm struggling with. i'm supposed to be on clear liquids for another 2 days, then full liquids for a week & mush a week after that. I am going crazy over here! I'm so sick of drinking flat broth & crystal light all day long...I started sipping some creamier soups, but that doesn't help much. I guess I just need to chill out and relax.

hey everyone, this is my first post, I figured it should be in the STL section. I got word from NewStart this week that I got insurance approval and they're trying to set my surgery for wed. the 28th., two days before my 32nd birthday. I'm excited. I'm gonna keep reading, but it's great to see so many successful folks around these parts!
