Hi... I was banded on May 1st. When I went to see my doc. on May 25th he said go ahead and eat real food. Just chew well. So, boy was I glad. I could not get my intestines to cooperate until I started eating real food. So, now my intestines work fine, but I can eat ANYTHING now. NO restriction whatsoever. I am following the waiting to drink rule. getting the Protein in, but I am eating too much because I am hungry like before the band. I get my first fill on June 15, and I am hoping for good restriction then. I cannot go on like this. I don't feel like anything has happened to my band because of eating real food early. Who knows. I can eat, bread, rice, anything at all, But, I hate being hungry so often. Like before. Let me know how your doctor's appointment goes. I will be eager to know what his take on it is. I initially lost 23 lbs, but am up at least two lbs. Martha in Michigan
