Hi am new got lap band on oct 24....and its only been 3 weeks and I feel very hungry so I ate yesterday...food went down fine, but now am still hungry.....and am scared to eat since dr said to wait 4 weeks is this normal,...plus my stomach looks very swollen

This forum is so helpful. Thanks all! I have a question. Could someone tell me examples of slider foods?

chips and ice cream. Go down easy but oohhh so bad for you!

I ate alot of egg salad that was the best. And Soups really fill u up.

Yes Soup and tea fill you up, just make sure you don't add to much sodium.

Hi all I M one week post up and currently on liquids and I feel that I am getting a starving feeling. I am not sure if that's normal I am following my diet this is what my day looks like so far

730am-4oz of farina

8-10am-I was sipping Water

10am-4oz of primier shake

1030-1230-water ice chips

12:30pm I will have 4oz of tomato soup

Seems not enough and I am starving or is it gas

I don't regret any decision in my life because at the end I will make it work

I too am on my 1st week post op I eat and feel uncomfortable but my stomach is growling something awful throughout the day. I ignore it and stick to my liquid diet but still feel like I'm not understanding my body. How did it turn out for you after all? Any thoughts I'm sure would help.

Lovely29, I'm also one week post op. Also feel hunger pangs (growling stomach, etc) but yet can't/don't want to eat. It's weird. Here's my typical day right now:

B-4 oz juicy juice apple juice

L-4 oz protein shake

D-SF Popsicle

Sipping water/eating ice chips in between. Sometimes I have a cup of hot tea or SF/FF cocoa.
