@ RWSample I was given soup sugar free jello pudding, protein shakes twice a day and crystal lite for preop diet. The shakes replaced two meals so in reality I was only eating once a day and was on this diet for 2wks. Fourth of July I thought I was going to just die because I couldn't have bbq with my family (lol) but I just kept thinking my reward is going to be great in the end. Postop diet has been only clear broth and jello and clear liquids for 1wk so I progress to scrambled eggs, baked/mashed potatoes, (soft foods) on Monday and I'm so glad because I'm sick to death of soup!! I have started walking the track with my daughters 3X's a week and soon as my incisions heal I will be joining a gym. Your gonna be just fine, ONE DAY AT A TIME. :-)

Well today is day 5 and between the post op diet and surgery this week I'm down 22lbs my dctr told me yesterday. I still have gas and bloating but at least it's moving and not giving me so much pain. I'm HUNGRIER than a bear but can't have soft foods for another couple days and my first full isn't till the end of the month. SO FAR SO GOOD....Continuous Blessings Everyone.

Hello I'm newly banded on yesterday and I'm experiencing really bad chest pain. Not sure if it's gas or what but I'm taking GasX and not feeling any relief. I'm feeling full eating the broth or the jello and I don't have much of a appetite. If this pain in my chest would go away I would be on top of the world.
