    I am a newly banded and have been reading the posts which are quite interesting and helpful. My question is some people talk about the “Stuck Incidents” what are they? How do I avoid it? What do you do when this happens? It sounds terrifying

    I am also concerned about vacations. I will be watching your post to get some answers. If you know what type of places you will be stopping at you could look on the internet and get there menu.

    dont even remember going back to the surgery room. After my first shot to relax me I was gone, ( I am a wimp) Sorry about the gas, it still hurts a little in my arm after a week but it is way better. Husband gave good back massage it helped.. Or maybe it just took my mind somewhere else.

    HI I am on liquid diet and need different kinds of soups. I looked thru my paperwork and cannot find what soups to have, It says cream soups or broth. I love butternut squash can I have that soup or will it hurt me somehow? can you also tell me what other soups I can have?

    when things get stuck do you drink water to flush it down. is it hard to breathe when this happens. I am so afraid of gagging. I am probably worrying about stuff to much.

    lassie replied to lassie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    you made my day I love butternut. I also like cream of wheat and had some this morning I was amazed that I could only eat half a pac. before I would eat two before I was full. This is going to be an eye opening journey. Thank you for your input.

    I did not have to do pre-op diet but I did try to lose some of the excess weight. It took me a year to get get all the test and to get approved.. I had my band a few days ago and it is going ok a little pain from gas and the surgery. The scars are not very big so i bet they will fade over time. Good luck and you can contact me anytime with questions lassie

    I had my surgery on the 24th the gas was so bad after the surgery they kept me overnight. To help me they put warm heating pads on the worst parts and gave me extra pain meds. Also had me walk around the room with help. I worry right now is I am not hungry and do not want to eat I did do 500 calories and 50 grams protien I am sure that will get better. Keeping positive thoughts.

    Got my band on the 24th (day surgery) had so much gas they kept me overnight it was very painful. Came home yesterday and slept most of the day. I am on full liquids today but do not feel hungry, still gassy but it is way better. I am up and walking around had enough lying down. I am sipping on a cup of coffee I think I am going to have to force myself to eat.
