Hello all!! I have recently gotten my first fill which went great and am feeling great the only thing like I have read and heard from the doctors that my band is tighter when I wake up and eat that first meal of the day. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice on how they "wake" up their band?! I am sick of feeling that semi stuck burn in the chest when I chew/mash down a lot of what I eat for Breakfast. Should I just stick to smoother things in the morning or what?!

Thanks in advance for all the advice!!

I have never noticed a difference after a fill. But I wake up and watch tv in bed for 1-2 hours before taking my vitamins etc. and have my protein shake.

Warm liquids help, tea or coffee.

Some choose to just drink a Protein shake for breakfast.

I drink coffee first then eat breakfast about 1 to 2 hours after I get up.

I agree with ajtexas. i have coffee 1st thing and then have my yogurt or whatever I decide for breakfast later. Anyway, I and most people do not tend to eat when they 1st get up. drink something warm to wake up your band. Good luck

Coffee(5:30), Protein Shake (6:30), Oatmeal (9:00) is my routine.

Hot tea

protein shake or

yorgut with oatmeal mix

I have not eaten a meal for breakfast in about 2 years....I always have a home made high protein smoothie instead....

When my wife and I travel, I will go to breakfast with her so as not to be rude, and TRY to eat an egg white omelette or something....but is it a no go.....

As the day goes on my band gets looser.....
