I am on day 10 and it gets easier with time. Water in between meals helps and I weighed in after day 6, ten pounds lighter!!! My date changed to 7/6
I started Monday and the first few days hunger, headaches, and queasiness. My sister and a friend really talked me offered great tips. My sister had vsg in December and my friend the lap band two years ago. I am beyond the hunger and headache. It does it easier.
