I haven't had a problem at all with those Soups they seem to go down really well.I haven't been a guts and have only had about 4 table spoons at any one time.They are tasty and any little bits that are a little thick I have just really quash in my mouth.Ski yogurts are good too.low fat .I tried Asain Soup sweet corn and chicken but that I thought isn't quiet right as the corn is still whole and a little tough.So give it a wide birth in your first week.Campbells is the brand I think fro the Asain soups very tasty most likely good for a couple of weeks time.

you know in the next few weeks have what you like as by the time I was banded I had had just about every takeaway and was so over food it has done me some good.My girlfriend cried straight after having her band as you will find every 2nd advert is for take away and every3rd for some sort of diet.By the time you have have this done you will be so over all that crap and onto a new style of life.One which you know one day you will be

slimmer and more confident of yourself.

Hi - good luck with your band. I had mine put in on Tuesday morning and have the most dreadful wind. I'm sure I drank my Soup too quick. Otherwise, the stay in hospital was great and got to compare war wounds with the lady in the next bed, who had her's in just before me.

I'm getting sick of jelly, but at least I can get my teeth into it!!

      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?

      April Surgery
      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
