Im new but I think it means when you feel like your in hell for any reason. Like me, I feel like Im doing all the right things but don't seem to losing as fast as I think I should. I even go to myfooddiary.com and record all my food and excersize. But hopefully after a few more fills I'll no longer be in hell. And I have to tell myself that as long as I am losing and not gaining I'm goooooooood :D

Bandster Hell is the first 30 days after surgery, before you get your first fill, when you are on liquids and mushies. It's great at first because just post surgery you aren't really hungry because everything is still swollen and tender...but THEN you hit about the two week period and all hell breaks loose. The band isn't restricted yet (yes, it is NOT working yet) and you are STARVING and can still only have liquids and mushies. I actually did reasonably well during this period. I just kept eating cottage cheese and puddings and lots of jello and thing that gave me the feeling I was eating instead of drinking. You get really starved to CHEW something. Most everyone goes through a period where they feel they will chew their leg off.
