Hi! I am a newbie! I was banded on 2/2/09 by Dr. Scott Diamond. I am 10 days post op and am doing GREAT! I have lost 15 pounds since being banded. I am still on a liquid diet of protein shakes, juice & water. I am really looking forward to moving on & up to puddings, etc.

Thanks for being here!:biggrin:

Welcome to the forum.

I was banded on 2/6. Like you I am looking forward to moving past the full liquid phase. I am honestly dying for a scrambled egg.

Good luck!

Hi,

I was banded on 2.6.09 and I keep dreaming that I accidentally eat something and then I wake up and WISH I could eat something! The cream of wheat I am fixing my husband looks so yummy.

Is anyone suffering from heartburn? The heartburn and pain at the port site are really the only two side effects at this time. Even Water gives me heartburn so it's been really hard to get down the amount required.

Good luck! :biggrin:
