Is anybody else really apprehensive about trying new foods? I have been really hesitant to add new food because I am afraid of how my body will react or that it will get stuck.

I know this is crazy and all in my head, but I am really nervous about it. :thumbup: I had scrambled eggs yesterday and I was so nervous I could hardly eat them.

I want to enjoy what I am able to eat!

Hi,

I am glad I am not the only one scared to try food! I am only 3 days post op and on liquids, but am scared at the thought of getting stuck, sick, etc.... I will have to face facts eventually. My doc recommended eggs and I am surprised to see some of us have a problem. The ideas I get from this site are great!

Thanks for the recipe Princess. That looks yummy. I can not wait to try it. I need all the protein I can get, my hair is falling out big time. Thanks again

I am starting my 3rd week after banding, eating cottage cheese, and pureed fruits, yogurt, and smooth Soups. Also skim milk ricotta cheese. I also have a tbs. of parm cheese in my tomato soup with Italian spices and it tastes like spaghetti sauce, yummy, I may mix some with the ricotta cheese and put in small half cup containers for lunches. I won't have real "solid food for 3 more weeks. I move into the scrambled eggs and other mushy s two weeks.

I was 211 the day I went in for surgery, I am 204 now. I weighted 224 the day after surgery so.......I lost the gas and Water weight and a few pounds. I am happy to lose 2-3 lbs. per week it's much healthier that way. I am not filled yet so I do have to watch everything even though I am not really hungry.

good luck
