You want to be careful not to eat just any crackers though... Carbs will STILL come up and bite you! I am tolerating everything very well and my band has helped me feel satiated. I always eat my flaky Protein first (albacore, halibut, chicken) before I go to the hummus or cottage cheese. It has helped me to have these "safer" foods on hand so that I dont grab a cookie or eat what is left on my kid's plates. Shawn 15 days post op, 15 pounds lost, 65 to go

I was banded 12 days ago and just got approved for mushies. I am finding hummus to be wonderful! (although I liked it before I was banded too) My wife found something called PAPADUMS indian style Snacks. They are made from Fava Bean flour and you can find them at Trader Joe's. They are little cracker type things that really go down easy with hummus. (and they have 4g of Protein per serving) They have just the right crunch but all but dissolve in your mouth after that. Just thought I would put in my 2 cents. Shawn 12 days post op, 13 pounds lost 67 to go!
