I like cream of chicken mixed with chicken broth.

Congrats to you new bandsters... I'm now 6 days out and feeling great! My advice.... Walk, walk walk! Keep that air moving out of your belly!!!

I want to thank everyone in this site--it's so nice to have people be so open and honest about this journey! I'm on post op day #3....today has been the WORST for has pains! My left clavicle area the most painful of all. A friend told me to try activated charcoal pills....I think they helped! I has tried gasx, baby gas drops and Tums-nothing helped! I've also been walking around the block 1-2 times about 2-3 times per day. Still just eating broth, thinned down cream of chicken soup and jello. Tried thinned cream of wheat this am....2 bites and I was FULL and MORE BLOATED!!! Concentrating on water intake-which is going good! Heading back to work tomorrow--- hoping for a quick day! Thanks for all the advice and support on here! Have a great week everyone!

Good luck with surgery!!! Ask your doctor what he recommends if u experience gas pains...I'm 3 days post op and have been quite miserable today...bloated and gas pains. My incisional pain is tolerable....only a little sore with certain movements.... I would've like to have been better warned/prepared for gas pains.... Good luck!!!!

I'm scheduled 4 sept 26th....nervous yet excited!!
