Just start experimenting with softer solid foods at first to find out how you react. Wait before trying dry foods or just take it slow.

My operation was pretty easy, back at work two days after, a little pulling at the long incision if twisting just right, no problem working or sleeping or driving. I have been driving after the second day.

Operation on March 31, started pureed food April 10 and solid food April 17. The doc suggested shortening the liquid and pureed periods, since I have been feeling so good, maybe not good but great.

It was solid food before I could recognize the band talking to me and I am still learning to understand its language. It is not the same as a full stomach previously.

I lost 15# on the 10 day preop and have lost 17# in the 26 days since, so I guess that is adequate. It is 3 weeks to my next appointment and he says that he will adjust the band if I am not losing weight.

Maybe the novelty has not work off yet but a serious adjustment will be required after the novelty does wear off.
