I am new to this whole blogging thing, and very excited I found this website! Today is my 2 week Anniversary! I was banded on Oct 22nd, and am now down 17lbs since my surgery date, and a total of 32 including pre-op. I am just starting the pureed stage of my diet, and I must say it is easier than I thought it would be. I thought for sure I would feel food get stuck, but I am not. Which is scaring me and I am thinking that I have NO restriction and I am stretching my pouch. Is this normal? I mean I feel full, but there is no difficulties really. Also....what did you guys eat for the pureed stage? I have an "outline" but I need some ideas! I am very excited for my new journey to begin. I won't get my 1st fill till dec 7th, and I am more inflammed than they want me to be, as they said they had to dissect a lot more muscle than they wanted to. So I am still in some discomfort. For the 1st time in my life...I have too much muscle for something! :smile2:. Any advice for the weeks to come would be great! I am going to try and be good and blog often!!! Best of luck to everyone!:wub:
