    &@#$%?!!

    I thought it was going to be easy to get through the first couple of weeks on liquid, boy was I wrong. I was okay the first week. 2nd week proved to be a challenge. I was given permission to progress to mushies/soft foods...I am thought I would be excited, but am having issues with gas, so I don't have much of an appetite. It really is a process and you have to be patient...my nutritionist told me that as I progress with food it is like introducing food to a baby! My mind tells me I can do one thing, my body is saying something else. Anyway, good luck. I am entering my 3rd week post op and ot sure how I feel about food right now, mushies or otherwise!

    Sandwiches

    I was just thinking about what I will and will not be able to eat moving forward. I love sandwiches. I hate the idea of having to get them up, but if I have to, then I will. I was good for making them w/ bulky rolls before surgery and have no plan of trying such a thing now that I have the band. However, I was hoping I would be able to try fiber one wheat things etc...I guess time will tell. I dread having anything to do with getting food "stuck"...
  4. I was banded on 1/23/12 as well. I actually had a lot of pain post op. A lot of nausea as well. No vomiting. Released on Tuesday. Right now 1/4 cup of liquids every hour. It's hard to sip so little liquid so slowly when I am so dehydrated. Otherwise, no complaints. Nervous, because I really want to do well. I want to be a success story. Today for the first time it hit me how much I had a love affair with food. How much it consumed my daily plans...without food I have so much more to think about. Oh well...I am more excited. I can't wait to be fully healed so I can start exercising as well.
