  9. So do u tend to get buzzed more quickly now that you are banded?
  10. How soon did any of you bandsters start drinking alcoholic beverages after your lapband? And what would you all drink? Your comments are greatly appreciated.!
  11. Helped me more. I'm now on pureed foods and not a very fan or don't know how to get created with that. Hope you get to feeling better.
  12. Lol or gassy assy! I was banded on Jan 30th and gas pain stuck around for exactly 2 weeks. I walked and walked that seemed to help, gas x didn't do nothing for me. I found out that diluted warm apple juice
  13. I'm on stage 2, which consists of broth, soup, sf popsicle , sf fudgesicle, jello, yogurts and pudding and must have 64 oz of fluids and 80 grams of protein daily.. I don't start on pureed foods till stage 3 day 21 post op.
  14. That's okay. I felt good other than having gas pain/discomfort. The worst part is the gas pain, especially when it radiates to your left shoulder/back. I was up and walking around the same day and went back to work after a week.
  15. I am 15 days post op and I feel full all the time. For example, I had a 1/2 a lean shake for breakfast and the other half for a snack and still feel really full. Any suggestions/comments are greatly appreciated.
  16. I had my lap band on Jan 30th and still have gas pain. Drinking warmed up diluted apple juice has helped me. Good luck
