Nice, Wheelchair!:huh:

Brie, feel free to ask whatever you want. We are here to help each other. Yes, practically every topic under the sun has been discussed here but, good luck finding the answers you're looking for. No one here minds answering again.

Hi Brie..... I think we ALL wondered the exact same thing early on. It probably will happen at some point as you slowly return to a "real food" diet. Like above posters, it is pain that can be downright horrible but. My advice would be just to always go real slow when "introducing" a new food to your band especially something real dense/solid. It really varies across the board as far as which foods give which people trouble. Unfortunately, sometimes it comes down to trial and error with some foods. Just take it slow with small bites and lots of chewing as you move back into a solid diet. Best of luck :)

wheelchair..I'm not a moderator but could you direct future comments about LBT's "search" function to the "LBT suggestion" thread.... That way we can streamline the unnecessary ridiculous info...

If no one posted things online, google wouldn't work very well anyway....I'm just sayin.

I don't have anything to add but I am recently banded so the info others posted helped me, too. Thanks!

Just logged on today. When I saw Wheelchairs' post, it almost made me log off the board. :unsure:

But I stayed on line and am so glad I saw everyone's comments.

I am a newbie, too. This info helped me a lot.

I began to experience "stuck" after my second fill. But that was my personal experience. Everyone on here is shareing thier personal experience which will vary from person to person. Your questions and concerns are valid and not having info can be very frightening. I sought as much knowledge as possible prior to my surgery and attended 8 months of classess. After the surgery I realized how much I didnt know. We are here for you. Don't hesitate to ask anything. My greatest need post surgery was to find folks who had been through this before me and here about it, sometimes over and over. All the best to you!

Hi briemarrow,

I havent had the experience of getting anything"stuck" at this point and I pray I never do. I wanted to tell you DONT EVER STOP ASKING QUESTIONS!! if someone doesnt want to answer them, then they should just keep right on past the thread. There are a few negative people on this site, but dont let them discourge you, there are far more poeple willing to answer any and all questions. I'm sure as more new people join there are repeats of questions..sooooo what, that's why this forum is here. best wishes to you!:D

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
