I'm anxious for Wednesday morning to come, I'll be banded first thing, so I'm hoping to go home same day. I have a wonderful friend who is taking my boys overnight tomorrow and keeping them all day on Wednesday. I went shopping today, stocked up on soups, yogurts, shakes and jello. I don't have to do a clear liquid diet after, just 3 shakes and 2 blended meals. I'm not sure why everyone has different rules on what they can eat post op. I understand we are all on a different path to weight loss, but you would think there would be some consistentcy with what we can eat and when we can eat it. My doctor just says blended, no chunks. I think I'll just stick to liquids, I'm big on texture and I don't think I could eat blended chicken!

I agree with Christie. Some days its a pain in the butt, other days you can see a smaller butt! All the best to both of you!

Best of luck. You will be so happy that you had the surgery. As for blended chicken - try the mixed light/dark in a can. PUree it with lite Helman's mayo and you will love it. I did the same with tuna when I had to do the pureed and I still eat my tuna that way. I really like the texture of the pureed as opposed to the chunky kind. Welcome fellow bandster!
