Hello - I was banded 12/10/05, had one week thin fluids, two week thick fluids and as of 12/24, got to move into mushy phase BUT I have been cheating with the christmas holiday and am frightened I have compromised the band! Have eaten bread, crackers, chips, cheese, ham, chicken - all chewed up fine and have had my first pb. I am back in control now but woke up this morning with a pain in my stomach (first time), drank liquids all day and had mushy Soup but, after reading now about band slippage etc - wonder if the damage is done! Also, lost track of quantity - had 4 cups of mushy soup at one sitting. If I go back to liquids for a couple of days can I recoup my losses! Ashamed to say I blew it?!? What to do! T
