I think it would be fine. If you are feeling good then have a freakin margarita! Just count the calories. I had a glass of red wine on monday, im two weeks post op, and it did not hot me any faster than before I was banded. Have fun.

Im two weeks post op and my hunger is definately back, but I'm hanging in there. Tomorrow I move to mushies so I'm diopter excited about that!

It's really not all that bad. I had two weeks preop and one week post op of liquids. You can find pre and post op recipes at http://bandipes.blogspot.com

Im two weeks post op and I have an incision right on my bra line. Ive worn a bra a couple of times but it irritates that incision. I go back to work on thursday so I'm gonna have to wear one.

Im a stomach sleeper too. Its been about two weeks since surgery and I still can't do it. I have turned in my sleep twice and it woke me up. I can't wait till its comfortable for me to sleep on my stomach again.

Took me about 7 months.

I didn't have one until wk2 but all I had in me was liquids so I haven't been too concerned.

Dshack, I've steered to blog about my journey, if you'd like to follow it for info its http://bandipes.blogspot.com

I was banded on 10/27. Im feeling so much better but my port site is still pretty sore. I have 5 incisions, 4 keyhole size and port incision is about 1 1/2 inch. I had to do two weeks of liquids pre op, one week thin liquids post op, one week of thick liquids and pureed food, one week of mashed food, then you can start working in solids. But docs have different requirements. The first week after surgery I was not hungry at all, now my appetite is back but I'm hanging in there.

Hey! I stated a big during my preop that includes some recipes to make it more interesting. Ive also continued with the recipes post op and others have found it helpful. Check it out at http://bandipes.blogspot.com

So happy for you! I did not have one piece of candy either but I did consider letting a piece of chocolate melt on my tounge lol (i was 4 says post op). My will power is getting harder now that I'm starting to feel close to normal...stay strong!

You're lucky, I am 9 days post op and I have zero restriction plus my appetite has returned. I was fine until about two days ago and my hunger is getting worse by the day.

Yup, im 9 days post op. well im still following my doc s orders but I did have a bite of my sons pizza. I was scared but I have zero restriction and I chewed it probably about 40 times lol. I won't have another bite but I'm fine. I still have one week left of mushies and I'm clear.to start working in solids.

Body fortess from walmart and kroger, very inexpensive too
