I will be 2 weeks post op this wednesday. For the past two days I have been able to eat a small piece of catfish (chopped up, baked, chewed 30+ times) and then today I ate some chicken (baked, chopped up again, chewed 30+ times) I feel soooo incredibly guilty because I am not supposed to start foods like that until around 5 weeks postop. I am so scared I have stretched out my pouch or made my band slip by jumping to this phase so quickly. I have yet to feel nausious...i stop when I am full, and Ive been measuring out about 4-6 ounces like I am supposed to.

So my question is.....how do you know if youve stretched your pouch or your band has slipped? do you have to feel nauseous or vomit before youve actually filled your pouch up too much?

I have my 2 week checkup tomorrow and I am a nervous wreck.

Help :biggrin:

I just had my surgery 12/21 and was told by my doctor that band slippage would cause severe pain. So if you are not in severe pain, maybe there is no slippage. Good Luck on your doctor appointment.

While you should follow your doctors advice, there are many different approached by different doctors. Mine had me on mushies after a week then solids a week later. If you were seeing my doctor tomorrow, there would not be an issues, you would be on plan.

So I wouldn't worry about damage....

Good luck to you...
