For me the hunger was the worst in the two weeks post op. It was very difficult to deal with as the hunger would wake me up and make it difficult to get back to sleep. Premier protein shakes were my best friend during that phase. When you are in it it feels like it will last forever. It is tough, but you can make it through until you are cleared for soft foods. It was amazing to me how full I could feel on a 1/4 cup of cottage cheese. It gets better quickly. Hang in there and let your stomach heal before you try any new foods. You will be glad you did.

Thank you for the good positive advice.Ill follow it To a tee and yes Premier Banana is my favorite

Hey Dtru... That sucks about the tingly thing. I am feeling good also. Not down 20 but 10lbs for me. I will take it! I was so excited to try "full liquids" today. Not lifting things is just plain annoying. I'm rather surprised at how much liquid my new stomach can hold. I hope it doesnt mean it is stretched. If I sip slowly I can fit 8oz easily - of broth, g2, thin cream of wheat or even strained soup!
