I had surgery 02-01. Have ot had any problems keeping anything down. All has gone well except this past Saturday. Did not plan well and was out. I am to be on liquid shakes for 2 weeks after surgery and had 1c. refried beans and then at home felt bad about myself and fell to a bad habit and had some crackers (wheat thins) well chewed up etc.....It all went down no pain, etc. just full....well next day I hardly had anything since I was full...just 2 shakes with no problems but I notice I was a bit sore on my left side (like stomach). I have a follow up on Friday the 15th. Besides the soreness (and it is not bad) I feel like I am fine. I AM back on track with my shakes and liquids but want to know if anyone else has had this happen? I figure posting on the 200+ to lose board I might get a reply from others who have these same food issues. Thanks, Susy:wub:

1c water and 1 c. Jello....banded 02-01-08

Had strawberries(frozen) with 1.5 scoops protein powder(vanilla) with strawberry/banana jello powder, 1 splenda pack and 1/2 c milk.

Handful of peaches...and a jello pack lasts me 2-3 shakes.....I don't measure really.

I would like to attend as well. I do not drive so somewhere centrally located would be best for me. Mattience@aol.com

Had peaches(frozen) with 1.5 scoops protein powder(vanilla) with peach jello powder, 1 splenda pack and 1/2 c milk......yummy shake!

Had cherries(fozen) with protein powder(vanilla) with cherry jello, 2 splenda packs and 1/2 c milk......wonderful shake!

I had mine 2-1 too and have been sleeping on my left side. I am ok with it. For first few days was more the right than left and I was on lortab for first 3 but after that I am ok with it. Have you tried it?

I am Susana from Dallas. Surgery 02-01. No kids. Married 12 years. Was 360 and hope to get to 160. Long journey but taking baby steps and baby bites!

Surgery was 02-01 and I am released to return 02-18.

I had 4 small and 1 larger so I say 5 but the hospital checked on me and said oh 6.....so I guess they count the large one as 6?

Never did anything before. Banded 02-01 and have walked 15 min daily since. Will increase it as I heal. :regular_smile:

I was banded 02-01. All is well. Been feeling good...following all instructions but my curiousity for the best of me and I had some krab log salad....like fake crab meat in spicy cream cheese base. It was yummy and went down well. I now feel like I want to vomit. Not because it did not go down well, etc. It was too heavy. Too fatty....RICH....Never again. I had some mint tea and I am still slightly naseaus. I understand 100% now why we are given food lists etc. I had not had fatty foods for weeks and I am now not used to it. My bad. Just wanted to share for those also curious...Not worth it. -Susy:frown:

I was banded 02-01. All is well.

Not sure yet.

I think I like walking best.
