Hi All,

I have my surgery scheduled for Feb 22nd, I have so many question!! I have a co-worker that had it done and she has done really well, although she was only 196 when she had it done. I'm at 285, so I have a lot further to go than she did. Can you give me a list of foods that you absolutely cannot eat? And what did you eat the first month? Thanks to everyone for your help! :rolleyes:

This is the best place for you to come to. I am not banded yet but I have been lurking at this website for quite sometime. These people are great. There is a guys website I have found that has some recipes on it:

http://www.92inches.com/

at the bottom of the page after all the pictures are 2 recipes he has used.

Also click on the food forum here on lapbandtalk. There are alot of recipes there. I'm jealous you have a surgery date. I hope I can get one before spring. Good Luck

Do a search on food or Mushies....

Everyone is different in what they can tolerate, my doc says the only thing you truly have to give up is white doughy bread. He gives back carbonated stuff after 5 months.

This place has a wealth of info... so just spend some time reading

      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.

        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!
