Potato salad is really hard for me...Every time I have tried it I have had a stuck episode. Actually, any potatoes(baked or fried) don't work for me. The baked beans are usually ok if they still have a lot of liquid in them. I usually do not try meat at a cook out. I usually just drink a Muscle Milk shake before I go and eat lightly. I would rather socialize than be uncomfortable with food that will not go down. Make a plate....take a few bites here and there...move the food around with your fork....then put your napkin in your plate. Usually no one really notices unless you bring attention to it. I have had to really work on this because at first I felt really cheated that I couldn't eat. It is a "mind" thing. :cursing:

Sorry the servers were rude! I love the salads with a dollup of tuna salad on top. They are only five bucks:thumbup:

I love the salads!!! They are so yummy. I am about 7 weeks out from surgery with a 10cc band with 4cc's inside. I haven't tried the bread yet. Good Luck!:thumbup:

I understand what you are going through. I was banded 3 weeks ago....oh how I can relate to your pain. I found it much easier to sleep in the recliner the first week. I still have some discomfort in the bed in certain positions. Every day gets easier so hang in there!:thumbup: My doc gave me liquid Loritab and it really helped me rest at night.
