I know just how hungry you can get after weight loss surgery, but eating solid foods too soon can cause
your surgery to fail. A surgeon that teaches WLS told me that eating solid foods too early can be one
of the most common causes of early WLS failure. First week clear liquids, second week full liquids,
weeks 3 and4, mushies, week five solids cut finely, week six, you're home free. It's hard to stick to
a diet like this, but if you're going to lose weight, you absolutely have to eat properly. Haven't you
read posts from people who "can't lose, no matter what I eat". You went through a lot to get this band,
and you have to work to have it do you any good. The band, by itself won't make you lose one pound,
it's like a lifetime diet with a helper. Give it a chance.
