Hi:

I was banded on Aug. 6, 2007, I have lost 23 lbs. so far. I'm doing great however the last few days I have eaten some things that I probably shouldn't have ex. torilla chips/spinch dip. Every day since I've had diarrhea. It's not immediately but approx. 12 hrs later. Do you think this is from my diet or should I be concerned about something else? Thanks for help. Marcy:)

Hi there Marcy,

I think that it is the diet. I had that same problem and it lasted for a few days after I reinroduded solids to my diet. It's nothing to worry about :-)

yeah I heard this from some other bandsters shortly after surgery too...sounds normal. I think you may live (tee hee):omg:

i think it's your diet as well.

Thanks. I shouldn't be eating torilla chips and spinach dip anyways. It just tasted so good to chew.

I've known a few people who chewed on food, but spit it out instead of swallowing it, and they said that it calmed their temptation to eat something solid. Doesn't work for everyone (like me...) but I thought I'd mention it as a suggestion
