    Mushy Stage

    crackers were not on my mushies/real soft foods. try and stick with the tuna/chicken (very shredded/pureed) with ff mayo just to be on the safe side. also refried beans w/ff shredded melted cheese is also very filling....if in question, always refer to your surgeon or the nurses (i called mine when i had questions like this)

    Will My "gut" Ever Feel Normal?

    promise YOU will not starve. if my body is hungry, it is more than welcome to take some from my butt checks or upper thighs for nourishment

    Just Get Up And Do It

    i am proud that you are saying your eating is improving. to me that is a success. dont be so down. you are doing great. you are not giving up, that is what matters. Keep going forward in the right direction. i am too embarrassed to go to a class (in public) so i bow at your feet for being able to do so. all the best

    I Need Encouragement

    arent you still on liquids or mushies? you were just recently banded on june 29th? i am not judging, but mcdonalds should not be on your eating list this early on.

    I Need Encouragement

    when i want to be (encouraged) i merely glance at a picture of me in feb at my highest weight ever. that normally does the trick. But now i also look at my granddaughters new picture. but what i think about is mostly, what i went through to get here. the pre op and post op liquid diets. 4 weeks of liquid. if you can get through that, you can get through anything. you are stronger mentally than you give yourself credit for. put ur shoulders back, hold your head up. take that first step and get on with it. You can do this. we are here for you. all the best

    I Keep Cheating!!!

    hi kw, am gonna be tough-- you can stop (cheating) if you want to make an effort to NOT cheat and follow what you are suppose to do. say to yourself and remind yourself all you went through to get here. the only person you are hurting is yourself. my dr needed me to shrink my liver and if it wasnt, he wouldnt operate. that sealed it for me to not cheatt you've come this far, keep going. please note that after surgery, cheating on the diet could prove dangerous to your health.

    Should I Take Vitamins Now?

    i did my Vitamins up until a week before surgery and started again a week after all my vits are chewable (except my Iron which i have to crush) if in doubt, refer to your surgeon or the paperwork they gave you. all dr's are different. all the best.

    Has Anyone Had Gallbladder Problems?

    in 04 i had my gallbadder removed via emergency i lost alot of weight quickly and i went out for pizza one night with my friends and about 6 hours later, the pain in between my shoulder blades (very painful) hurt so bad, hub took me to ER. after numerous tests, xrays, they found out i had gallstones that was large. the next day after some prep, i had the operation. had same surgery as my bad with 4 incisions. only 2 are visible.

    Has Anyone Read The Posts On OH?

    i am also sorry for anyone who has (issues) but all surgeries, not just WLS has or could have problems or none at all. i feel it is wrong for them to scare people. please do not go there and read. i know whom u are referring too. there are some people who do try to help and offer support. Best to stick with this forum. i promise you will get all sides and support regardless of the issue w/o the doom/gloom stuff.

    Has Anyone Read The Posts On OH?

    Question About Fills

    i havent had a fill yet (not sure if i will get one until august) with the plication as well as the band, does it make a difference? but how much do they put in the first time? is there a set (amount)? what do they base it on? do you feel sick to your stomach afterwards? can you request very small amounts instead of 1 or 2 cc's? appreciate any/all feedback as this is an area i haven't had the chance to go and visit, but its (coming)
