Question about amount of food

[BLAKQUEEN 33]

My doc's orders say liquid diet for 2 wks; with clear lq 1-3 days advance as tolerated. I was banded on 1/26/09 and still in first wk; I tried creamed Soup on the third day and it did not sit well. It went down ok but afterwards o-boy what discomfort. So 2day I have not tried any food yet I will eat my Protein Jello and maybe a Protein Shake later but no food until after the 2wks. I will trie more soup this weekend. I don't know how some of you can eat sooo soon after surgerg. I also had a hiatal hernia repaair which may contribe to my intolerance to the soup. I have't been hungry yet, well 2ay I am a little hungry but afraid 2 try the jello yet. becareful with the food; eat slowly; chew well, and eat only what you can tolerate.

good luck all:thumbup:

I was banded on Jan 16, 2009 and I am currently on soft foods. I am only allowed 1/4 cup of food 3 times a day. It was the same for liquids and I will only be allowed 1/4 cup of food per day when I go on maintenance. I have lost 35lbs so far.
