[SammySam 0]

sooo im curious to as if anyone else feels like crap in the mornings.. im exactly 2 weeks post op, and i have so much restriction, that im never hungry.. its a struggle even to get a Protein Drink down.. im looking at it right now and i kinda wanna gag.. lol... so im trying eating a sugar free pudding instead.. someone said that for some reason that the bands are extra tight in the mornings, and then by night time im sorta starving... tomorrow i get to start the next phase and go to mushy foods, so im hoping that will fix how ive been feeling... maybe its cause i havent been drinking enough or my stomach just wants food... someone please helpppp.. but on a postive note ive lost 23 pounds

Hi there. I was banded on 3/16 and I was definitely tight and felt like crud in the morning for the first 2 1/2 weeks. It is much better now....hang in there!!!

Being tight in the morning is very common. Try drinking something warm before you try to eat anything...coffee, hot tea, even warm Water can help relax the band enough to allow you to have some Breakfast. You may find that even with the warm liquids you have to stick with yogurt or a Protein drink in the morning...some people are just that tight...

thanks.. im trying.. i just keep getting so discouraged... tomorrow i start mushy foods and im really nervous.. did you have any problems when you started? any suggestions on what foods i should try and should stay away from??? and you know how people keep referring to food getting "stuck" well.. im kinda confused on that whole aspect... is it that the food goes down, but then doesnt pass through your lower part of your stomach, or does it just get stuck as soon as you swallow????

I don't even try to eat in the morning... can't do it. I will sometimes have a yogurt at work around 10am, other wise I don't eat till noon. I don't have problem getting in my protien so my nut. is fine with skipping breakfast.
