So I was banded two weeks ago, and scheduled for my first fill in 2 weeks. I healing well and feeling amazing. I was just wondering if most of you were hungry prior to your first fill? I don:t feel hungry at all. i wish it would stay this way!

I wasnt hungry at all the 1st week and a half. Now ending my second week, I am starting to get hungry a little more everyday...yes, physical hunger. I think its different for everybody. I read some posts where ppl were hungry the 1st day/week. Can't wait for my first fill! Keep strong!

I did get hungry around the 5th day post op and it was hell.

I came to in recovery hungry. No lie, no kidding. not emotional hunger, not head hunger, true physiologic hunger. That was the down side.

The upside was that i felt great, I felt normal, no gas pain to speak of, slept on my side in bed night one, on my tummy night two (my norm) etc..no heavy pain meds needed, no problems getting my liquids in etc.

But the point is we're all different. being hungry isn't abnormal during this stage, neither is not being hungry.
