Just had lapband yesterday, came home same day. Did great. Today I ate my 12:00 meal of 2 oz of Advantedge with protein. After 30 minutes, I wanted to get that nasty chocolate protein taste out of mouth and decided very unwisely to eat a cherry popsicle. I will never want another cherry popsicle. It hurt, I foamed, and threw up. I called the dr. and they said I shouldnt have eaten a popsicle the day after surgery and that I could throw up this foam for some time. Finally it is ok. I think I over ate and it sure doesnt feel good. It was quite an eye opener.:thumbup:

OMG...I'm not banded yet but, at least I now know what not to do! Did your Dr. tell you when you could have Popsicle?

Ya im only able to have protien drink,broth,jello during week 1... sounds so yummy!!

Hmmmmm...I had popsicles all night long in the hospital after surgery. As a matter of fact...that is all the gave me. They were sooooo good.

Hi:

yes, my fact sheet said I could eat them, but when I called they said I shouldnt have. I then tried at 3:00 my next meal, threw up until 11:00 last night. I think I was over filling my pouch also. As the last 2 swallows of my the 3:00 meal made me feel very tight. I feel great this morning and I am going to try breakfast very slowly and if I feel fill I am not going to finish the broth. I also think the protein is making me sick. I am using whey protein from GNC, and it makes the shake so thick and nasty. Today I am going to try without the protein first and then work up to it.:frown:

I was banded the 14th of July, two days ago. I had popsicles in the hospital. They are so soothing. I think you are right about the protein. I know you do NOT want to keep getting sick. Good luck with the change, hopefully that will do it and you will feel much better.

WOW, they gave us popsicles in the hosp right after surgery. To keep us hydrated.
