Eating (drinking) right after surgery

I just came off of 21 days of liquids and it was hard. all i had was juice and water and broth- Popsicles saved me through the days- I will never want to do that again. I am now on solids and it feels great- wont get my first fill for 3 more weeks- hang in there- its very hard but you have to remember its not for the weight loss- its to heal the band- you dont want problems later. -
I have 1 egg for breakfast and half piece of toast- i am having tuna mainly for lunch and have been eating fish every night for the last 3 nights- not sure what is going on but will try some liquids maybe for a meal

I am going on week number 4 since my surgery. I am now on solids. Everytime I eat, i get a horrible stomach ache and nausea- Is this normal and has this happened to anyone else?:thumbup:
-
That will be my biggest challange- eating slowing, I have never been a slow eater- i guess if you get food stuck enough and it hurts, one would learn real quick to eat slow!!
-
Thats funny, maybe you should keep some pinnapple juice at home also- lol

Not losing weight

No my doctor says 2-3cc a time depending on my needs. I couldnt imagine doing 1cc at a time- that would end up costing a hell of alot if you are paying out of pocket- seems like you would have to visit him more often than normal -
Ok i guess that makes sense. I still have 8 days to go on liquids and I have been reading about all the food that gets stuck and as hungry as I am I am almost afraid to eat!!:biggrin:
-
thanks for the feed back. I guess I just dont understand how it could get stuck if there is no restriction there until your first fill:confused:
-
Does anyone know if food can get stuck before I ever have my first fill?

Also, there is no trouble for me getting fills. I will be going to Fill Center USA. They are located all around the US and I will be going to the one in Roswell
