I will be banded on December 15th. Are you hungry during the 1st 2 weeks? I am just wondering how am I going to survive the liquid diet.

I was not hungry the first 5-6days post op. I had to make myself get in liquids. Nothing tasted right either, I think a side effect of anesthesia? I called my dr on day 4, asking if I could have a TBL or 2 of cottage cheese. I had serious nausea and energy drain. He agreed and once I ate a small amount of cottage cheese I felt 1000% better. Today is Day 10, I'm still not physically hungry. My stomach will rumble when its empty though and eat something like a slice of lowfat cheese, yogurt, cott. cheese. But I just don't have cravings or uncontrollable hunger. I can eat 1C of tomato soup or 1C milk/CIB and feel satisfied for at least 2-3hr. I am fighting head hunger though. I thought eating meals with my family would be ok, but it makes me sad. I really miss a big plate of foods that I love. Until I can eat some regular foods (small plate) I don't think I will eat at the dinner table. I still love food and miss it dearly. So far tho, sticking under 1000 cals a day, getting in at least 50-60g protein.
