    Post Op Diet Question

    MissBS, You are doing good! Question. One set of papers says 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of Jello, etc. Just got my band July 1st. My stomach isn't telling me about when to stop. So, I've been keeping it to less than 1/2 cup or right at 4 ounces. Does that sound right?

    Post Op Diet Question

    My doc explained to me that there is no "fill" when he initially does the banding. This is to allow time for the sutures to heal. Eating more than is allowed or the wrong things could cause problems with pouch size, etc. I don't know about you but I had my band Wed and "no way" do I want to have to have any type of repair or whatever. Get some sugar free lemonade "to go" packs and add to bottled water. Sip away. I can't say I'm hungry. too sore for that.

    Had Surgery Today!!!

    I just got the call from my surgeons office yesterday that the insurance has approved the surgery. Next step is work up/tests on April 27th. No surgery date set yet. I am very nervous. My weight has been up and down so many times since I was in my 20's (I'm 55.) I've been mentally preparing myself for a life style change. Glad that surgery day was good for you. That's encouraging.
