I had bread for the first time yesterday, I toasted a slice and was ok. Thank you all for the input

I no everyone is different. I did learn from this sight I was able to eat shrimp, w/o a problem, I hadn't even tried.. NOW I have a question.. Has anyone tried CORN? w/or w/o problems? I am on my third surgeon now and my visit isn't until October.. So I am kinda on my own. Banded 3/22/13 Any input I would appreciate..

Web MD has the best tracker! It is EZ to use, keeps me accountable AND I never really considered HOW much exercise does play a role in burning up calories until it is right in front of my face on this tracker. I look forward to posting my entries now!!

Good Luck I asked but you answered about liquids after a fill. I just had my first fill yesterday and I am starving on clear liquids. But tomorrow I can have protein shakes and yogurt that will be better...

t y Dylanmiles, I don't have the gas pain any longer the heating pad did help. I sorta thought so on the burp/fart ..

I was banded 3/22/13 Surgeon told me the gas pains could last up to 3 weeks. How long or does the gas ever completely go away? I am excuse me farting all day long??? I have no pains just gas. My friend had gastric by pass a few years ago and she is always farting, and not a bit shy about it.

great story thanks for sharing

I had surgery 3/22/13 and I still have a lot of gas. I bought some Gas X today --- still have gas. The shoulder pain is awful.

Has anyone experienced headaches after surgery? I had them on pre-op but figured that was withdrawing from food. How long before the gas pains go away? I had surgery 6 days ago, I am eating yogurt, soups, jello, that's about it. I am hungry for sure. Any suggestions will really help me get thru these first few weeks.
