Hey guys,

I'm comming up on year 4 of being banded on March 17th.

Im so excited, its feels like my second birthday I get every year!

But I realized there are alot of teens on the site and I was wondering if you would like your questions answerd by another teen?

feel free to ask

Thanks guys

hey im karmin im 18 and i just had the band 4/9. im so hungry.my problem now. what would happen if i cheated?

Karmin-

Are you sure it's physical hunger or do you think it could be metal "head hunger"?

A good way to tell the difference is head hunger comes on suddenly where physical hunger usually comes along more gradually...

Pretty much all of us have had to fight the head hunger battle which is why the post op diet is a well needed detox from food!!

im sure its both. i did have the surgery because i couldnt control my hunger well thats why everyone has the lapband BUT i could have done this without the lapband i didnt know i was gonna go hungry WITH the lapband. it seems so difficult and i KNOW its going to be worth it i just dont understand. i feel like im gonna go to the doctor and ki will have lost 2 pounds and be upset that i havent even any food to not lose weight.

I am on day 5 of my post op and this diet just is'nt doin it. Why am i stil hungary soon after every meal? Smoothies and slimfast aren't cutting it for me. I wonder if the band isn't doing it's job. Did any one else feel this way too? And what are the dangers of eating a few days ahead of the diet plan. Like can i have mashed potatoes before 5 days on thicker liquids?

email me the answers if you got'em
