poor you i know just how you feel im 14days banded and fed up with soup !! try chewing some food and spiting it out i know it sounds crazy but just the chewing really has helped me good luck sammy uk

hi iv been banded for 12days now can any1 tell me if i can eat soft foods ie mashed potato and baked beans if i chew it really well and make it mushy in my mouth i cant see that this would b any different than blended as once iv blended it it makes me feel sick just looking at it sammy

hiya cascadian good for you ! i think the band is like a little peice of willpower strapped in if you work with it then you cant help but win xx sammy xx

hey thanks guys just knowing other people have been through this helps ! the doc just said that i should eat blended foods that are as runny as apple sause for 4 weeks then said i could have mashed food ! so iv been banded for 8 days and have another 3 weeks till mashed (cant wait) y is it that every thing on tv is food that i cant have hehe

hi all i was banded on the 31 0f jan so its been a week now iv lost 21lb so far but thats cuz i dont like blended food it all looks like sick i cant wait till i can have mashed or real food xx:faint:
