Just because you CAN eat anything doesn't mean you SHOULD. Your stomach is still healing...your band is still settling into place against your stomach...and failure to follow the post-op diet progression is a common cause of band slips. So unless your surgeon has told you it's OK to eat solid protein, veggies, and fruits at only 3 weeks post-op, I think you may be eating solids prematurely.

I'm not there yet (soon!) but my post-op protocol is similar. I think it's great that you are not overdoing it and you are picking up your body's signals for being full. Can't wait to be where you are now. If you have any questions, pick up that phone and ask your dietician/nurse, etc. Goal is to eat real food, extremely well-chewed and with time before the next bite, etc. Look forward to hearing how you're doing as you progress. You're off to such a great start, way to go!

So you aren eating purees or you aren't? If you are eating purees, these are intended to be easy on your stomach while you heal and won't really make you full. I don't know if I would continue eating grapes though, I'm worried about those now and I'm 7 months out. For the best result make sure you follow your NUT directions as closely as possible!!

Good luck =)
