Hey Everyone,

I am 4 days post op and I have a question about the “full liquid” stage. I know that when I start to eat, I can’t drink 15 mins before and 1 hour after.

My question is, does this apply during the full liquid stage? I had a yogurt this morning and a few sips of water. I felt ok but is it allowed during this stage?

I was wondering the same thing. I think it would be ok on this stage because everything you are taking in is considered a liquid. I dont think it comes into play until after your done with the liquid stage. Is this correct? :help:

My doc says no liquid 30 minutes before eating and 30 minutes after at that stage at the clear liquid and full liquid stage. It then is supposed to go to 1 hour after by the time I'm on regular food.

I was banded 26 May 2007 & I am in the full liquids stage.

I kinda liquidize everything, shakes with ice cubes, banana, strawberries & yoghurt.

My surgeon told me as long as I can get it up a straw I can have it.

First couple of days I havent really wanted anything as ive been too scared but things settling down.

I have been eating frozen yoghurt & ice poles, they help me with the sore mouth.

Onwards & downwards (weight wise) :clap2::clap2:
