I've had tuna (4oz.) with Home made roasted peppers chopped up about the size of a pea...then took about 6 croutons cut them in half.. and would have the tuna with roasted pepper on top with a piece of the crouton..and it does not bother me. and i hear about liquids and mushy foods not being able to stay down, I'm not getting it can there be something wrong w/ my band? I feel like i can eat solids too i took a bite of my wife's pizza right after i finished my tuna and nothing..mind you I was banded 10 days ago.. in other words i don't feel like i have to blend anything.:frown:.

I had the band and the Dr's said I was a perfect candidate because of my weight. I think lot's of it has to do w/ how overweight you are. It is said that you can lose more w/ the bypass but like the other post said it's a much more evasive procedure and long term the band be removed. good luck with your decision..

Do you drink and eat at the same time? I heard that makes the food go down easier, but it's also cheating. I was told to eat first and drink about 30 minutes after..
