Post surgery diet is strickly liquid for four to six weeks! I know I can eat soft mushies but the doctor said I can't. I had some soft foods on my son's birthday, but didn't over do it. I was very careful with portions and type of foods and chewed it well. Then went back on liquids again the day after. But prior to the party I felt I hit a plataeu and stopped losing. The scale seems stuck for some reason. Anyone else having this probrem so soon after their banding? It's been 2 weeks and I'm starting to get hungry now.

I want to join the April Bandsters I was banded on 4/14/07...not sure how to join I reploed before but am not yet on the list!

It's been 10 days since I've been banded and aside from a little pain on the port incision area I'm feeling great! So far I'm doing great on the diet and I'm NOT feeling hungry...who knew? I wouldn't have believed anyone if they told me I wouldn't feel hungry or lose weight with the band, but I'm doing it. My scale says I've lost 15 lbs in 10 days so I'm excited!!

I was banded on April 14, 2007

I was banded on April 14, 2007 and three days later I still have my sore throat too. I think it's because they would not let me moisten my mouth at all until over 24 hours after the surgery. That is when I was first able to get my throat swabbed. In addition to the sre throat I am now getting a serious headache. I am not hungry on fluilds only but this headache is feeling like the ones you get when you are hungry. Is it a carb or sugar withdrawel?
