I found this to have informative information:

WWW.IABSOBESITYSURGERY.COM

They have a wonderful guide under diet guides you can find your surgery type. The lap band guide really is beneficial in explaning "why" you are eating mushie food and why your not eating more and when your getting your fill ect...

Hope this helps

I have not even tried to eat pizza. I am sure I can but I havent tried it.

I can eat almost anything. and as long as I remember not to drink with my meal I have restriction....somewhat.

I eat less then I did before the surgery. I am excercising more but havent lost any weight since the surgery.

I dont understand this but my DR said I am doing fine.

Well, I hate to say it, "But, welcome to Banster Hell". I've read this so much both the waiting and the hunger driving everyone crazy. Had my surgery on the 18th of Dec and now I'm feeling great and ready to move on. I don't have to go back to work until the 8th of Feb and I'm starting to work out at the Y. The first week after surgery...no hunger and I was losing weight like crazy. Then Christmas day I got to get back Protein and I stopped taking the narcotics and I started to get hungry. So I started adding Soups that had a lot of salt. Gained weight back. Went to the Dr and he didn't say a word about it other than my BP was too high, so I went back on my BP pills and cut out the Soup. Lost 8lbs the next to days peeing myself to death. So now I'm keeping it as low carb as possible and soft foods and since surgery date I've lost 14lbs and that I'm happy with. I aslo don't get my first fill until Feb 2, and did they tell you guys about the rules for getting fills? For my DR, its liquids 24 before the fill, nothing to eat that day and then liquids 48hrs after...sucks...but I'll do it because, dammit I'm doing this this time for good.

PS... sorry this was so long but I thought I'd catch up with everyone.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
