Banded on July 2nd

Hi I am from the Eastern Shore of MD and just got banded by Dr. Zarif in Berlin, MD. I am having a hard time getting down the nasty protein drinks and don't want much water either. I don't want to get dehydrated but I feel full after about 3-4 sips. I can eat about half the jello though. Already losing weight and happy. What did about getting their fluids in and getting enough?:)

    Congrats, I was also banded on the 2nd. I drink more now because I do not want to feel lightheaded. Also you should be urinating at least four times a day. Another thing I did I got sugar free popsicles in case I did not feel like drinking. I think your appetite will pick up. Hope all goes well!
