  1. Okay, I am 2 weeks out from my surgery.....I feel great...I have even started walking 30min a day! I was banded this month 6/14/11 I don't have my 1st fill till 7/11/11 and my doctor has me on liquids until then....WTH! I CAN NOT simply take this anymore.....I need to eat. I want to lose weight because I am eating and making the right food choices...not because I am simply STRAVING...I could have done that all on my OWN and lost weight! I have had food.... because the Protein shakes and broth is NOT doing it for me any longer...I had grits and I ate one egg....I hope and pray that I haven't ruined my band before I have even REALLY gotten started Any suggestions anyone can offer to get thru this next two weeks with NO FOOD??? BTW when I have my 1st fill I have to be on Mushies for 2 weeks....so it looks like I really won't be eating until AUGUST......

    4 Week Post Op Liquid Diet.....

    Thanks for your response! Grits are actully on my " Soft Food" stage list its almost like " Cream of wheat"...I did ask if I could move on to " soft food"....I was SHUT DOWN. He wants " Scar Tissue" to form around the band.....With that said I totally understand every doc is different but with allll the post I have read here on lapband talk...My DOCTOR is the most extreme....I was on a 2 weeks post op liquid diet before my surgery and now another 4 weeks on " Clear Liquids...and 2 weeks on soft food... I am VERY dicouraged at this point...I find myself doing my old habits " Food Seeking" looking in the fridge and cabinets etc.... Yes I have a great Protein shake that I love, but it does not keep me full for long...and when I get hungry I just wanna cry cause I don't wanna drink broth, eat a popsicle, Jello, or another shake.... I am starting to feel like....Why did I do this....
  3. Hi All, I came here to look for some support as I am struggling and scared . I was banded 6/14 my band has remained empty until my 1st fill on 7/11. My incesions have completly healed over, gas pains are gone and I feel great, expect for the CONSTANT HUNGER. I am suppose to be on liquids and Protein shakes until my 1st fill but I have disappointed myself and had solid food..... This evening I had scrmbled egss, cream of wheat, 1 twix candy bar and french fries, and I think I had so much because it all went down without any problems. Now I am worried that I have made a mistake and possibly runied my lapband. I am not looking to be judged because no one is perfect and everyone has eaten something they shouldn't have at some point. I am looking for anyone is willing to offer any ADVICE and SUPPORT. Should I be worried that my lapband is ruined before my first fill? Could my lapband have already slipped? Please Help.....
