Greetings; my name is Gomez.. I was banded on the 22nd of January. Both my nutritionist and surgeon have included smooth soups, yogurt, and sugar, fat free puddings. Is this other peoples experience? While I am losing weight I wonder about the quantity I am consuming. I realize when I move to the blended diet there will be more severe restrictions on quantity..I was just wondering what other peoples experiences were moving from liquid to blended

Hi Gomez. I had surgery on 1/27 and I am in the middle of my 2 week "full liquid" phase. I also get to eat cream soups, yogurt, sugar free pudding etc. I was also told to eat 3 liquid "meals" a day plus 3 protein shakes. It seems like a lot to me, but my dr gave me a very detailed list. As long as you are following the DRs oders, I am sure you will be fine. Good luck.
