I am finding my portion sizes getting bigger as well. I was banded on 11/10 and my first fill is the 8th. Good thing I think:) -
how soon can you eat solids without pain
mljalways replied to twinmommy2014's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded on Nov 10 and I can now eat almost anything just alot less of it. Chicken has been ok and I had a very very thin ribeye (not the whole thing of course) I get my first fill on 12/08. I believe my band is unfilled at surgery -

Funny you say that about the floating between 2 lbs. I ahve lost 17 lbs since pre-op but have been stuck between the last 2 lbs for 6 days now. Glad I am not alone -
I cheated once or twice to and got yelled at here. It happens, no big deal unless you just blatenly blow it. Just move on.

Dont mean to sound stupid but there are a bunch of threads about constipation and I am having the opposite problem during this pre-op diet. Is that normal?

Thank you both, I have looked in the past and havent seen them but I will look again, Typically if it has more than 7 sugars I dont touch it but thanks again. -
I Got My Surgery Date...Where Are The November Bandsters?
mljalways replied to Cappy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You to are lucky, I have to do a week of liquids pre op:( I live in Melbourne and almost had to make the trip to Jax to have surgery but then had a turn of events and I am having it here on Monday. Good luck to both of you and take care. -
Constipation or the other????

Anyone cheat on preop diet?
mljalways replied to nicholeinaz's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I havent found any sugar free yogurts and the ones I do find that are "lower sugar" or "high in fiber" still have more grams of sugar than I can have. -
Anyone cheat on preop diet?
mljalways replied to nicholeinaz's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
RESTLESS, as I can appreciate your reply I wanted to further explain my thinking. I am NOT making excuses to cheat, quite honestly the toast is just so I can stomach my Diabetic Meds. My docs diet calls for 3 servings of yogurt a day which I cant have due to the sugars so I substitute it with 1 piece of wholewheat toast. I guess I am really not cheating but just tailoring it to my medical needs. -
