Low carb, high protein MUSHY foods?
jilly_bean replied to lilmispcl's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I'm in the mushies stage right now. My favorite is low fat refried beans with some enchilada sauce on top and some sour cream on the side. It's so good -
Can you eat before your fill?

I just had my first fill yesterday. My Dr. said nothing to eat or drink 4 hours prior. -

You can do it. I did 4 weeks of liquids post op. You're healing and if your Dr said to wait, then waiting is what you should do. Hang in there

Did anyone have a problem with pop/soda?
jilly_bean replied to leannel90's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
If it is the taste you love, my surgeon did say that you could have Diet soda if you left it out long enough for it to go flat. No carbonation left in it = no problem. However, i think flat pop is gross so its not worth it to me, but everyone is different. -

jilly_bean replied to PattyGirl66's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I had the same thing happen to me. I gained about 60 lbs in 4 months while they figured our it was my thyroid. I was just banded 2/22 so i hope to see such a great change in myself. You look great and are a great inspiration. -
