I have been up all night going to the bathroom with loose bowls is this normal? I also can feel hunger pains now and they come about every 2 hours, am I doing something wrong should I be feeling this way?

Ashlyn, how long have you been banded and what is your diet like?

I was banded on the 15th and I am on liquids.

Liquid in, liquid out. Sorry. As soon as your bowels empty a bit it will stop, just let it keep coming and stick to those liquids. A well healed band is more important than food right now.

Maybe move from less juice to more broths, chicken or beef, and maybe that will help. Are you drinking liquid vitamins or protien powder/drinks? That extra nutrition might help put a little bulk into your bowels? I'm no doc, that's just some ideas.

If you are just aggravated, wait it out. If you are miserable, a quick call to your doc or nutritionist might help. It will get better...

Hi Ashlyn, yeah, like Kathy said, liquid in, liquid out. This is perfectly normal and to be expected!
