  1. Hi how is everyone doing?
  2. Banded4change. I'm doing fine. I made it through Christmas pretty good. I'm still hungry and on full liquids for another week. I'm looking forward to pureed foods. How are you doing
  3. Bel. It will be fine. I tried not to worry or stress about it until right before the surgery.
  4. Earneice. I ate watered down dressing with the sauce from the meat. I was satisfied. This was challenging for me because of the sweets. I did get to enjoy my family. It gave me a new way to look at enjoying my family without food binding us.
  5. I am still on the full liquids diet. I move to the pureed diet in two weeks. My surgery was on the 17th
  6. I have been trying to stay sitting in my living room chair but my sleeping buddy....daughter wanted to get in the bed. I woke up this morning hurting. I have to stay upright.

  10. @@Earniece have you tried gas x for the gas pain? I'm so jealous. My clear liquid stage lasts until Thursday morning. Since I have an appointment tomorrow, I am hoping he allows me to move to the full liquid stage so I can have a better variety.
  11. @barbie1978. I'm making it. I have to remind myself multiple times a day. I went to gnocchi yesterday and was able to get the clear isoprene drinks. They were on sale buy one get on 50% off. I am on the clear liquid diet for a week. Then I will move to a full liquid diet. I'm hungry. I'm reminding myself about why I am doing this. I see my doctor tomorrow. Hopefully he will allow me to move on. My incisions are itching. I think I may get Greek yogurt also.

  13. Hi earnice. I felt the exact same way. They gave me so much for nausea. The gas pain is not as vad as I imagined ut would be. I have been taking those gas strips. The pain from one of my incisions is intense.
  14. Sage you will do fine. I felt the same.
  15. @@Sun Godess. So I am officially banded. How are you doing with your surgery. How is everyone else doing?
  16. Hi everyone. Just wanted to check in my surgery is in a little over a day. Not nervous really but just ready to get it. Hope everyone is doing well.
