  1. Hi all! My name is Monica and I was banded on Nov. 7 by Dr. Aceves the same time as Angela T. She referred me to your group so here I am! After a rough start including IVs I am right where I should be and following my week 3 diet and including some thicker liquids. I found these awesome cartons of soup at Whole Foods by Imagine. They are "creamy" purees without any dairyand all organic. Only 90 calories per serving and delicious. I work as a chef, so I can assure you that they taste good!

  2. Hi all. I was referred by a sweet lady, Angela, peaceseeker55, to post. I had my surgery on Tues. Nov 7 and can barely drink any liquids at all. This morning I held down maybe 5 0z total but have been vomitting all evening again. This has been the case for 5 days. The pain when drinking even tiny sips is killer and throwing up relieves the painful pressure. I know how bad this is for slippage but I can't help it. The Dr. took an exray and there was a small amt. of Fluid passing and he seemed happy with that. I am afraid of dehydration and lack of nutirients. I still can't even eat Jello and the Protein drinks are tough. Will this get better? Will I loosen up. Is there a med. that will help me? Any and all acvice welcome. Monica :help:
