I had my first fill on Thursday. Today I started back eating regular food. I think I have 3 cc in my 10 cc band. I don't go back until December. For lunch I had a Peanut Butter jelley sandwich on thin wheat bread... No Problem... I had some lentil snaps(tomato) no problem.... Next was my mixed fruit cup in it's own juice... After a couple of bites I got this funny feeling in my throat and here it comes back up... (SORRY) I'm done until Supper... WOW is all i can say. My dr doesn't believe in snacking and he hasn't told me how much Protein to eat. He just said to continue to9 do what i'm doing and that I'm doing fine.... I know i need to drink more Water....

Justwatchme and 2muchfun, Thanks for your imput.... It's hard trying to prepare meals without a guide. My the big book on bariatric surgery just came in the mail today. So, I'm going to look at it for some menu ideas. My surgeon said nothing about how much Protein I should have. He just told me to stay away from the Protein drinks that he wanted me eating... This is a learning experience.

I had surgery on a Wednesday... I was back teaching my kindergarten class on Monday. Listen to your body! Everyone is so different.

Congrats....

I'm claiming a YES for you!

I love salads also... I have tried on 2 different occassions to eat McDonald's side salads and it made me sick both times... I'm going to try it again but not for awhile...

I had my first fill on Thursday. I also have 3 cc in a 10 cc band. I think I had myself so woked up about it. It really wasn't bad. My dr. doesn't want to see me back for 8 weeks. I thought that was a long time, but he said i'm doing fine and he'll see me then. I'm back on regular food tomorrow...

Congrats on your NSV.... I had to put my scale away for fear of weighing myself daily or hourly. Now I just weigh myself on Wednesdays....

Welcome to the other side.

I'm a Richard Simmons kind of girl myself... I ordered all of the old VHS on DVD....

Thanks for sharing.... This is a journey like no other....

Sorry you having some trouble. When in doubt call the Dr. Sending comfort to you

Congrats... Welcome to the other side. I hope you start to feeling better.

Terry sending happy thoughts your way!

My surgeon requires 7 days of pre-op liquid diet. I lived on Protein shakes, broth, SF Jello, SF pudding. I know you will do fine... Remember this is YOUR JOURNEY...

Congrats....

I to find myself comparing my weight loss to other... I have to realize everybody's journey is different. The main thing is we are ALL getting healthier....

Congrats.... I was banded on Sept 3rd... this is a journey of a lifetime....

Good luck...... I'm newly banded and It's the best thing I have done!

Congrats.....

Take it easy.... Congrats...

I have no advice... I'm newly banded myself, but I hope you start to feeling better.

Congrats.........

I just crossed over to the "banded" world yesterday. I have a question.. Can someone tell me how they track their food/protein intake besides the old fashion way of writing it down? I was wondering if anyone used my fitness pal? Thanks
