    Wine?

    This is probably such a ridiculous question. But. I was invited to a wine tasting. I'm three weeks post op. I was going to call my surgeon in the morning and figured I'd come here first. Is there any reason I shouldn't have wine now? I've moved on to mashies and have tolerated them well. Should I stay away to be safe?
  2. Hello! I just wanted to see if anyone was close in time to me? I had my lap band surgery on 2/26. It was difficult in the beginning with the port. That part hurt the most, the area around the port. But its better now. I'm back at work. I've lost a total of 23lbs since the preop diet. Trying to get the Protein in has been difficult. I started eating eggs and mashed potatoes. Everything has stayed down. In fact, I haven't vomited once since the surgery. I'm going to introduce other soft foods this week and take it from there. I'm on here for advice, so feel free to share what has helped or hindered you in this process. Thanks for your time!
  3. I'm trying so hard to not drink with my meals. After 32 years of doing it, it's hard to unlearn. But this forum helps. I could use the reminders.

    Wine?

    Thanks for the suggestions! I really wanted to go mostly for the social aspect. But, I think I'll pass this time. I'm not a big wine person or really any drinking in general. So, I won't miss it if I stay away for a few months.

    Hi Pretty, my nutritionist gave me a very specific post op plan to follow. The first 5 days was clear liquids only. After that you introduced fat free milk and other dairy. Gosh, I don't think there would be a lot I cold have eaten that second week without some dairy. At the third week I have eggs and milk often. Did your doc state why you should stay away from dairy?

    Yay! We are band buddies! I've tried to attach my meals from yesterday via MyFitnessPal. I haven't lost any weight since the weekend. But I'm not too hungry during the day. I'm pretty happy with my progress so far. Hope to start walking daily during lunch. I'll start Insanity next month. I'd like to keep in touch! Is there any way to "add" friends or maybe "follow" others? LOL I dunno. I'm new here.

    Memenear, do you have an appointment for a fill? I'm supposed to go back on 3/28 to see if I need one. I'm pretty sure I will since my hunger is increasing.
