Found the sticky in the 'Food' forum. LapBand food Stages Lists Suggestions

Just had an issue remembering how to copy the link.

Hope this helps, there are threads for liquids and mushies there too.

Here's the link: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=3995

Click on it and it will open a new window with the thread that Morsaille was referring to.

Also, dont worry about being able to eat as you did pre-banding. This is normal as you wont have much restriction until you get your first fill. In the meantime, dont worry about anything other than eating the right types of foods for the stage of healing that your tummy is in. Losing weight during the first six weeks is a bonus. Letting the stitches heal and the band get seated in well should be your number one focus right now.

Thanks P'nut.

Ooh, and msheavensent, Stitchy has a very comprehensive list on the mushies help thread. Thanks Stitchy.

Now... I am going to try and relearn how to copy links.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
