I just got my Band yesterday and besides a little pain, I feel no different and I'm hungry ...

Doing the liquids, is it normal to want food so soon?

For some people, yes. But stick to your post op diet regardless of hunger because your body needs time to heal.

Best wishes.

I am still pre-op but hang in there and try to focus on the future - a healthy, happier you!

Yes ma'am but you can do it. Just as Mis73 said, stick to your diet and you will be fine. Congratulations.

Ty Ladies, each day it has gotten better

How are things going now? I was banded on the 22nd of March and I've been pretty hungry. I'm sticking to my diet but it's a challenge! We can do it!!!

Hi Ladyt,

It has gotten better, I had my staples removed today....

It's time for me to go to the Gym, I need to stay busy...

And as you said We Can Do It

Congrats on the surgery and beginning your journey. Wishing you great success.

Ty Cheznoel, I need as much encouragement as possible...

Thanks Everyone ???—

Welcome to "Bandland".

Each person is different. I actually felt full on liquids. Don't worry... remember your healing and you haven't had a fill yet. Take it one day at a time.
