Hi Everyone,

Today is my 6th day post op. I have been following the orders as much as possible but today I was determined to cheat! I made some rice with tomato soup!! very soft and I chewed the entire thing about thirty times before sending it down but the scary part is that I didn't feel full or felt any discomfort after finishing a whole cup of rice. SO now I am horrified that maybe I have damaged my band by over eating that whole cup. Please tell me what you think? I am a food addict and six days having those shakes have made me feel so disgusted that I just needed to have a little bit of real food.

Stop beating yourself up. You'll be fine. Get back to the shakes. If you are still worried, give your dr. a call.

Don't go to the dark side! Stay in the light! (smile) Really, be determined and stay within doc restrictions. I know that sounds easy but I know you can do it. I have faith in you!

LauraKey,

Thanks for all the positive support, I am ready for this 100% and know I can do this just mad at my self that I kind of gave in so fast :tt1: I guess I will have more days like this and just need to get back on it fast. I think as soon as I am allowed to exercise I will be way more motivated as well. I have lost 8 pounds in 6 days and have 50 more to lose.....
