I've never used Bare Minerals but used Monave for a few years. I liked it at first, but then it just got to be too cakey for me (probably my skin changes).
-
If you stay feeling yucky and only leaning towards soft foods, you may need a slight unfill. Please don't hesitate to call your doc before your 4 weeks are up if need be.

If you are active duty prime, there will be no copay...prime retired has a $12 copay.

No, they will just give you a pad and mesh panties...life goes on :tt1:

Unless he is different for people he did not band, he does not use flouro on a normal basis.

I was completely naked under my gown. If you are on your cycle at surgery time, they will give you a pad and mesh panties.
I have only had loose stools once since surgery...it was after eating a scrambled egg that apparently didn't like me.

B - Dannon Light & Fit 0+ strawberry yogurt
L - South Beach Southwestern chicken Wrap kit (I ate 2 bites of the first wrap and got stuck...ate only the chicken, cheese and salsa a few hours later after my workout)
D - 1/3 thick beef ranch burger patty, 1 leaf romaine, 1 slice Tomato, 1/2c ranch style Beans, 4 pieces no sugar added sliced pears

You'll be fine, I run at least 3x a week and no issues yet. The only thing my doc recommends against is ab work before 3 month post-op.
-
I ate whatever up until my pre-op diet. Now, my band truly tells me what I can and can't eat...it really doesn't like the *crap*. That is not saying though, that I won't have an occasional cookie or ice cream...not everyday though, because I don't feel good afterwards.

Hi all! I finally had my first official fill this past Wednesday day (the other was during surgery) and my first official episode of being stuck yesterday. And to think, I thought the fill did nothing:tongue2:. Thankfully the pain was gone in about 10 minutes, but it definitely told me to slow down and take smaller bites.
I also posted a fun thread if anyone is interested in taking part http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f182/what-have-you-lost-77783/

I would follow your doctors orders...although you may feel fine on the outside, your inside is not healed yet and moving stages too early can lead to band problems.
-
-
In what way? I'm a little lost, so therefore can't answer intelligently.
-
I think the amount is fine but I was told to take no more than 20-30 minute to eat because if you take longer, your pouch can start emptying allowing you to eat more.
You may want to check with your doc on that.

First Fill & Stuck Food
in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Posted
If you can't get down solid food, you are either not taking small enough bites, not chewing well enough or need a slight unfill. I have only gotten stuck twice and it was my own fault for rushing, otherwise I can eat anything and it is fine.
