I was banded on May 19th. Yay - I hear the thunderous applause. The problem I'm having is too few calories. The MOST I've been able to get in a day is 644. I'm not meeting my protein goal either. I have been using muscle milk but I have to break it up over 3 x a day because I hate it. I have used Special K protein shake with 2 tbs of reduced sugar jif. I'm eating my soups -broths. I'm supposed to be on a liquid diet for 4 weeks post-op. It is killing me!!!!! I'm not getting my water in either. I'm thinking things will settle down and I'll feel like having more. I'm very tired and at times don't want to get up to make anything. Anyone else having trouble 6 days post op feeling like eating? Thanks for the help.

i am also having the same issue. i was banded on the 18th, and i'm struggling. I made the mistake of going back to work too early and now i'm sore on top of weak and tired all the time!! Today I think i've gotten maybe 450 cal in and that was a struggle.

I also was banded on the 19th! Until today, the thought of eating anything made me grimace. I also drank too little. Well, today my appetite came back with a bang! I feel better and have energy & no headache! It will happen soon, just give it time! Good luck & congrats!
