It's officially been three weeks since banding. I have had no fills yet. I have felt some restriction, as it's the smallest band they make that I have inside me. Fine. I've been eating mushies, and had no problem. Yesterday I had scrambled eggs, with half a slice of cheese. Yumm! Today, I tried to eat the same thing, and two bites in, it absolutely stopped, and I ended up sliming for about half an hour.

Later, hours later, I tried some cheese ravioli. Again, two bites in, (and being very very very careful about chewing thoroughly, and waiting a while between bites.) it all stopped again. And again, more sliming...(in fact I took a break in the middle of typing this to go do that some more).

Today, it seems, all I can tolerate is liquid.

Any idea why that would be the case?

:confused2:

This happend to me on Sunday. I will be 4 weeks post op tomorrow. I have been doing just fine on liquids and mushies. Sunday I tried an egg with cheese as well and that was it. Took two bites and it was like it would not go down.

I did not do any slimming, I stopped eating for the remainder of the day. I only had liquids. The next day I only had liquids also. I felt really full and heavy in the stomach are so I decided I may be constipated.

Took a laxative and yes, I needed that but still dont feel quite right. Dont have the heavy feeling in my stomach but still feel a little queasy and not sure why.

Hang in there.

Today I managed to eat a 3 oz tuna steak, bbq'd....and 2 oz of fried potatoes. I had to stop in the middle, and take an hour long break, but went back and finished it after that. No pb'ing, and no sliming. And OH MAN! Talk about delicious! :cool2:

      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

      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... :(
