  1. yes, they've all healed well. I know the pizza wasn't a good diet choice. It's the first time I have done that and I feel really bad about it.
  2. No, I don't hurt. I don't feel any restriction. Once in a while I will feel something if I don't chew real well. I guess I just feel guily eating the piece of pizza. My nutritionist says no bread at all.
  3. It is right at the end of my middle scar and it looks like a bug bite. I got it during the same time period that I ate something that I shouldn't have. I am paranoid I guess. I don't feel any restriction and I am hungry alot. I ate a little salad and a piece of pizza tonight. Will the pizza hurt me?
  4. I had my surgery on Jan 20th. I have had one fill and I feel no restriction. Once in a while I feel something if I don't chew well. I am hungry alot. I have ate some things that I know that I shouldn't like a pieceof pizza. Will that hurt my band or just not helping to lose weight. Will I feel restriction or is my band not right?
  5. I have a welt near one of my scars. I had my surgery on Jan. 20 - anyone know why I would get a welt near my scar now?:thumbup:
  6. I ate a piece of pizza today, is it going to hurt me?
  7. How do you make sure you are not eating too much. Its not like you can take your scales? Afterwards, I am afraid I ate too much. I haven't had a fill yet.
  8. What were you eating on day 15 after surgery - soft food stage
  9. My nutritionist told me that I didn't need to puree scrambled eggs or applesauce. She did tell me not to have the eggs in the morning.
  10. I was banded on Jan 20th and came home on the 21st. Some pain in my chest area and the incisions but nothing unbearable. I don't know if the chest area pain is a gassy pain or not. I am on clear liquids until tomorrow and then I start full liquids, any ideas on the different types of things to eat?
  11. Thanks Judy, you've been a great help - Good Luck
  12. I get banded on the 20th and I didn't get a lot of pre-op diet instructions either. I was told an all liquid diet and I am worried that I am not doing it right either. Not sure if there is much room for any light meal other than protein drinks??
  13. Pre Op Diet - Why are they pre op diets so different - some 14, 10 and 5 days? I am on 5 day liquid diet and have been doing really good but today I ate cream soup with little chicken pieces and part of a bread stick and I am a little worried.
  14. It's really confusing - I started liquid diet on Thursday and today I had a cream soup with little chicken pieces and a piece of a bead stick and I am a little worried. I have had two No Sugar Instant Breakfast drinks today as well. Can you have diet pop before surgery?
  15. Does it matter what type of pre op diet you are on or just that you lose weight?
