Hello Fellow Bansters:

How much were ya'll able to eat before you got your first fill? How long did the full feeling last? How was your hunger level?

I am still on the full liquids portion of this diet (for one more day then, I go to pureed food and such) but I will admit, I will occasionally have a small portion of something that I am not supposed to have. It won't be anything dramatic like ice cream or hamburgers or steak or solid food or anything..but stuff that I can tolerate that is not truly on the liquids list.

How is everyone doing? I hope everyone is doing well.

Hi There

I was banded 3/5 as well and am really starting to have trouble with my eating. Still doing the Protein shake in the morning but have added a little PB and a couple slices of banana, easier to get down with some flavor. And doing good at lunch but at after work and at night I am getting really hungry. I also lost before surgery (15lbs) and 10 since but I slowly gained back a pound and am getting nervous. I have been walking ALOT and am hoping that my body is just changing and I will start losing again soon. My first fill isn't scheduled until 4/11. Thanks for everyone who has commented, it's nice to know that I am not the only one with these issues. Can someone tell me if the fills hurt?
