Hi everyone,
I had my surgery 4 weeks ago and from 3 weeks in I was able to eat alot, probably almost, if not the same amount as before the surgery. My only real issue is with Pasta and soft bread but other than that I can eat what ever I want.
I've also had a few beers and soda's although I can't drink them as fast as I used to.
I lost about 15 pounds after the surgery however have gained about 6 back over the last week.
Is this kind of restriction (or lack of) normal? And am I going to do any damage by not eating the prescribed diet to the letter? I don't want to shift the band.
On another note, I get hungry all the time and need to eat regularly to stay satisfied and being hungry actually hurts more than it used to!
Thanks
