I was banded on the 31st. I have been doing fine, but I don't think I am getting in enough liquids. This morning when I woke up, I could tell I was hungry, so I got some sugar free jello. After the 4th small bite, I felt like I was going to throw up. I didn't throw up, however I knew I wasn't going to be eating anymore of that jello. I poured out my crystal lite, in exchange for water, and pulled out a sugar free popsicle. That seems to be going down just fine.

I have eaten jello since I've been home, and have not experienced that before?!? What could that be from?

Second question is about the pre-op diet. I am on a clear liquid diet for 2 weeks post op. How am I supposed to get my protein?
