I can really have sugar-free pudding w/in the first week?? Even though it's not a liquid, nor would it be able to fit through a straw?<!-- google_ad_section_end --><!-- / message -->

Hi Trystelle, Thanks for the response -- it was my first one and I'm excited to hear from others who have been through this as well. And congrats on your weight loss! I had the surgery 5 days ago. Do you know whether or not I can eat egg-drop soup? What about any kind of soup that is pureed enough that it could fit in a straw (there's a recipe for a Portuguese soup that looks really good). Thank you!

Hi, I was banded last Friday September 28, 07. I feel good, but my stomach is swollen. How long will that last? I am drinking protein shakes, water, Crystal Light, and sipping tomato soup. I heard from one source that sugar-free jello is OK and another source said absolutely no jello. Does anyone have advice about that? How about ices or popsicles? THANKS for the input
