I did take the poll. I said my head hunger came back at 1 week because I was sooooo bored of broth. I was soooo happy to move to puree Soups.< /p>

I was actually hungry when I woke up from surgery but there was no answer for that :D

The head hunger was what i had to work on before the surgery. So after the surgery i was content with what i had at whatever stage. i am not going to say i was not anxious about advancing to each phase but i can say that i was satisified with the amount i ate. my Protein supplement really helped during this time. i added the powder to everything. Soup, broth, milk, etc.

I have a friend thinking about the lapband and i told him the head hunger is the hardest part to work through and conquer. I got really hungry one day not long ago. I could not get enough to eat. but i kept my composure and drank me a Protein milk and the craving passed.

Great questions to ask. Some times we just wish we had a book and everyone had the same situation. But all is different. Good luck on your search!:D

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
