  1. I skipped a period when I had my banding done. I think it's normal as your body is going through hormonal changes so it could come early or late.
  2. I am in my 3 week post op and I am on soft foods. Is cooked cabbage classed as a soft food???
  3. I am 3 weeks post op and wanna start running but want to know if it is still to early to run short distances.
  4. Thanks everyone. I have been told to stay away from white breads and pastas and to stick with whole meal or multigrain types and the cruncher the better
  5. I am 3 weeks post op and the dietian and doctor are saying I can already eat bread as long as it is toasted and I eat it slow and small bites. Can anyone else eat bread/toast
  6. Been banded for 5 days now and I am experiencing pain in the back rib area on the left side. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this and if it is just from the gas.
  7. I am 3 days post op and my throat is still sore. I am guessing it is from the tubes they put down your throat. Has anyone else got a sore throat???
  8. I am 2 days post op and my doctor said I could eat puréed food already. Is anyone else able to???
  9. Today is the day I start my pre op shakes. Drinking first one and tastes ok. I might not be saying that in a few days.
