banded thurs and hungry!!

Hi I dont know if I am doing this right???

I am hungry, well think I am! or might be wind.

So far today I have had:

50ml water
50ml sugar free yogurt
50ml water
50ml sugar free yougurt


this has been since 4.30am and its now4.22pm is this right? please help me someone?

Oh my, with that little in, I'd be hungry too! You should definitely be sipping slowly, but rember you are still supposed to be getting in a minimum of 64 oz of water a day on top of whatever diet you are on. What stage does your surgeon say you should be at?

Here's a sample schedule my surgeon's nutritionist gave me for the first two weeks (clear liquids with protein supplements) but you should ALWAYS follow your surgeon's advice about diet!

Breakfast at 0800 Protein Shake (240-330ml)

Snack at 1000 Sugar Free non-carbonated, non-caffeinated beverage (240ml) and either 1 high protein gelatin or other 240ml protein drink supplement.

Lunch at 1200 Protein Shake (240-330ml)

Snack at 3 or 4pm high protein clear drink (240ml) or high protein clear soup (240ml) AND 240ml non-caffeinated, non-carbonated, sugar-free drink

Dinner at 6pm Protein Shake (240-330ml)

Snack at 8 or 9 pm 1 high protein gelatin or other high protein clear drink.

First thing Monday morning please call the nutritionist at your surgeon's office and ask for a more clarified menu.

thank you for your reply. I spoke to the hospital and I start my baby food tomo, I feel great at the moment.

I think I was down the other day, it was a bit of a shock but I feel great today, made some soup and feel nice and full.

Thank you:kiss2:

Congratulations Helen and welcome to the losing side hunny!

Faith is right, you needed more fluids... think about the minimum of 2litres of fluids per day.... whatever you like babes, Hope you're enjoying yoghurt and soup!

Hya all, i'm just on the pre-op diet due to be banded 16th suffering terrible with bad breath !!!!!!! or should i say everybody else is suffering from my bad breath..............Any ideas ???

sorry Lainy... it's the ketosis that's making your breath smell... you could try eating a bit more to get rid.... but that's not the idea of the pre op diet!!! Bear with it! You could try some Gold spot breath freshener spray!
