Hi Serenity-I remember when I had no restriction and what I did was try to limit my calories and meet the Protein requirements my doctor set for me. I used The Daily Plate to keep track of my calories and nutritional needs for me and it really helped. Good luck to you.

I'm 3 weeks post-op so I am no yet filled, my typical days food is....

Breakie - 1 Weetabix with ss milk

lunch - 1 bag Quavers with tablespoon of cottage cheese or 2/3 tin of Soup

dinner - Tablespoon of mash, 2 tablespoons of veg and Gravey with slice of meat blended or 1 fish finger.

For some reason i am quite restricted, not due my 1st fill until 4th November

Hi I was also banded recently and feel the same as you, no restriction. Having been to a couple of group meetings with past bandsters they all say until you get your first fill you wont really feel much different. This time is for your body to heal. I am just trying to be carful i dont overeat. Stick with it. Jue:thumbup:

I was banded just over a week ago, Im mainly on fluids but must admit to having some baby foods at time, the tiny bit of texture seems to make me feel better than being on just fluids which I've found now make me feel sick. Usual day consists of as much Water, tea, juice as i want, a baby porrige for Breakfast, complan or such like for dinner and tea-time sees another baby food (aged 3-4 months is best - no bits!) then in the evening if i want anything i have it - so far I/ve lost 6kgs over the last week, dont feel hungry but that could be because its still all swollen inside.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
