I have Hypoglycemia, Even before banding I was told to eat 5 SMALL meals a day never large meals. But the band has helped me a lot I eat healthy now which is great for the Hypoglycemia. You shouldn't have a problem as long as you follow the proper diet. The liquid phase was a little tough but it's doable. I have good restriction now so sometimes, well most of the time I'm to tight in the morning to eat and that's the meal I seem to need the most but I grab a protein shake first thing and wait awhile until I loosen up to do breakfast which usually consist of a protein bar and have no problem with lunch or dinner. Just follow your Doctors orders and I'm sure you'll be fine.
