Thank you SO MUCH for this thread. I had a fill last Monday and have gotten stuck on just about everything since. I have been so incredibly depressed because I can't keep anything down. (Though the weight has just FALLEN OFF this week, so there's something to be thankful for!)

I was thinking about going to get some solution taken out, because I don't want to damage anything by PBing all the time, but it IS getting better. But only slightly.

I think my problem is that I didn't have a lot of restriction before, so I had no idea what I was up against when I DID have restriction. I also went back to solid foods too fast - my doctor says a day of clear, a day of full liquids, a day of mushies, and then regular. I think I should have done two of everything instead.

I didn't really think about the fact that I could be making myself even more swollen - that would explain why they say to go back to liquids after you vomit... I just didn't know that included a PB. Is that right?

Tyler florence has some FABULOUS baby food recipes in one of his cookbooks. Including how to take family meals from the table to the high chair, so they work for everyone.

I am a lil concerned. My pre-op diet is Clear liquids the day before and that is it. what concerns me is that some say that this could affect my surgery? WTH! Not that i want to be hungry for 2 weeks. it just makes me nervous and my surgery date is next tuesday the 25th pending final approval from insurance.

I don't have a pre-op diet either! My surgery is May 25, and my doctor said that since I was under 300 pounds, I didn't need one. I'm still planning on eating low carb/low fat this week because I've heard about the liver thing, but other than that I feel like I'm in the "last meal" stage.
