    i understand how you feel. i was banded 10/13 and got sick of the liquids very quickly. i just kept alternating the same foods too. it was hard but i knew it was just 2 weeks to go for that. i am now at soft/pureed foods and it is much better. just hang in there and it will pass for you too. maybe someone else will have some ideas for you that may help.:thumbup:

    I'm scared to ask this question....

    fransbeenbanded replied to juliansmom2003's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    i am there with you, banded 10/13 myself. i get hungry often. but reading the other posts, it is up to our own will power to get us through to our first fill. i don't get one until 12/3 and am so discouraged. i am losing slowly. but afraid i will try to eat more than i should. will power is hard, i didn't have it before surgery and the only thing helping now is that i don't want to screw up what i have accomplished. good luck!

    i take 2 childrens chewables and suppliment with a B12 and tums quick dissolve. my problem is with my medications. they make me gag. i crush them and put them in applesauce, but it doesnt' help at all.

    Mushies recipes??

    fransbeenbanded replied to cruzlady's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    i find that almost any vegetable you can mash. i love cauliflower to pieces. things like chili can be blended a bit to smooth them out a little. i went to google and put in pureed recipes to get some more ideas. hope this helps you out a bit.

    Have you named your band yet?

    fransbeenbanded replied to elgrad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    i was banded on oct 13, 09. i call my band Nellie as in 'whoo, Nellie, slow down'. so far i have not had too much pain since the second week, so she is female to me. :wink2:
