 Hi Jessie!

I was banded on the 6th! I haven't been extremely hungry, thank god!  I notice hunger if I take too long in between shakes.  I have no idea how much I have lost, first appt. this Friday!!! 

In between shakes, I've only had SF ice pops, water and soup so far!  Cannot wait for the mushy stage!

that is awesome you have not felt hungry.  The shakes made me so sick so I was unable to do them and the nutritionist had me replace the shakes with soup and I was staying so hungry so they moved me to the next phase.  I am not as hungry but still get stomach hungry.  I know when it is head hungry from being bored ect and that is the times that I get up and walk.  I go for my first post-op appointment tomorrow  

Awww that stinks!  At least they figured something out for you!  Good luck on your appointment tomorrow, keep us updated! :)

thank you so much I go today @ 1  hopefully all goes well I got my 1st period in over a year so I know my weight is gonna be UP today when I go there ugh
