Be honest....

If it was just slime/golf ball, no. If it's a full-blown PB, just liquids. I don't eat anything until the next day.

Same here..

sleepyjean, it's recommended to do this so that your stomach can calm down, and if it's swollen or inflamed from the PB, the swelling will go down.

That said, I don't really do it. I've had very few really bad PB's, where I did liquids, but usually not. Of course, if I go back and try to eat something and there's still a problem (ie; I PB'd because I ate too fast/didn't chew enough, not because I ate something that just wouldn't work), I'll switch to liquids for at least that meal.

Early on, I didn't wait, no. But I lived and learned, and now if I WERE to PB, I'd absolutely stick to liquids for at LEAST 24 hours. I've had the vicious cycle where inflammation comes on the heels of a bad PB episode, and it's WAY worse than avoiding it in the first place.

ummmm what she said! in the beginning i would go back to solids. immiediatly sometimes finishing my meals.

now i dont chance it AT ALL. i have had my band almost 3 years though. everytime i think i 'know' something the darn things (band) proves me wrong again!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
