Hi! I'm new to this site and not sure exactly how to post, but here goes. I was banded on the 11/22/2010 .. I think I'm doing pretty good. I plan to return to work tomorrow. My surgeon has me on a liquid diet for 3 weeks, after that we move to a "pudding consistency" diet for another 3 weeks before starting the "re-feed" process. Prior to the surgery, there was no specific diet to follow. My surgery was outpatient and within a few hours of surgery I was home. The recovery room nurses advised me to walk as soon and as much as possible so the "air" would not make me uncomfortable. I have to admit, I haven't had any issues with it.. thank goodness!
I'm just not real sure what I'm feeling... I have 3-4oz at a time and I guess I'm just feeling full... I just hope it's not too full... how do you know when it's too much?
Thanks!
