I am so glad to hear someone else is having the same issues as me! I have been banded for a month and go for my first fill next week (thank goodness!) But since eating again, I no longer want sweets, burgers, mexican, etc...I crave natural foods! I too want milk all the time but also want salads!!! I guess this is a good thing but they aren't filling me up. Hopefully the fill will help.

PLEASE HELP! I am 5 days post op and figured I would surely be able to drink my 8ozs per hour that my doctor suggested I get to before starting pureed foods but I am doing good to get in 1-4ozs every couple hours without being in pain. I am not dehydrated, but do still have alot of nausea and gas pains even with small sips. I have tried watered down white grape juice, berry juice, tea but nothing seems to sit well. I do drink sips of water as I can but still am left feeling bloated and nauseated. When this happens I do try to walk it off but it is getting to the point that the thought of anything going into my mouth makes me sick to my stomach. If you can tell me any pointers to help or if this is normal, I would so appreciate it!
