So, I was banded Monday and have been doing Clear liquids since. Tomorrow I can move to full liquids: Protein Shakes, cream of whatever strained, yogurt.

What was on your full liquid diet?

Cream of chicken Soup, Protein drinks, popsicles and jello:) Soon you can mash up a sweet potato, add milk to make it extra runny and put some cinnamon and splenda in it...yum!

Congratulations on getting banded! Welcome to the club:)

I'm actually very sore I think where my stomach/band is, so I am assuming its going to take some time for my body to adjust to the restriction.

I'm very slow moving these days :) But progressing each day :)

I'll share with you and you share with me. So far I'm still on Clear Liquids. chicken broth and tea with Splenda.

I could have smooth Soups like Tomato, sweet red pepper, squash. I could not have yogurt until week 3. I did use a hand blender on the yogurt to mince up the fruit; and added milk since greek yogurt is really thick. Week 2 I was having yogurt so I had Soup and Protein Shakes. When I moved to mushies I would have the soup wait an hour and have my Protein.< /p>

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
