4 weeks post op and can eat anything
izaiahsmommy posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
the first couple of weeks I had "restriction" and was comfortable just eating/drinking small amounts. Now I am about 4 weeks post op and I can eat anything. I have had no adverse reactions to any food. Amounts of food as well. HELP! Anyone else having this problem??? -
MAY BANDSTERS ~ How are you doing?
izaiahsmommy replied to sophieownsme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded 5/10 and am doing ok. I have lost 20lbs and am pretty happy with that. I am also hungry all the time! I can't have a fill for another 4 weeks. I have been trying to make the right food choices. I find that if I have had to much time lapse in between meals(aka no snack) then i am ravenous and eat whatever i can! I had a water roll today and it was heaven. I actually ate it rather fast too because i was starving and i had no problems. I can pretty much eat anything and have no problems. So i am counting doewn the days to my first fill!! Loved that feeling of restriction post op due to the swelling! -

i think with your arms down they look perfect! If it were me, I would def not want to go back under the knife! Too painful!! -
I have my 2 week post op appt tomorrow morning. My hunger has subsided with the real food being incorporated. I haven't started exercising because i needed clearance from surgeon to do that. I walk every day, but that is it. I am down 23 lbs!!!!!
-
I am so glad you are doing better. I saw the surgeon's assistant today and everything is on track for my June 21st surgery. I lost another lb - not really dieting, just exercising. I am really enjoying the gym. Do you exercise at all? When you say pretty hungry, have you told your doctor?

Banded on 5/19 ~ protein concerns
izaiahsmommy replied to mmesmama's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It is very hard! Just do the best you can. If you can't get in all your protein right now then that is fine. At least that is what my nutritionist said. i am glad to hear you're feeling better!! -
Banded a week ago and no restriction
izaiahsmommy replied to anglov's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you for posting everyone!!! I was banded on may10th and i am really starting to struggle with hunger. Right now i am have some cream of wheat. It is yummy! I am suppose to be on full liquids, including yogurt and cottage cheese. Then on monday i am allowed to start incorporating soft foods into my diet. I am way too hungry though and have decided to start them a bit early. So far no problems.I had a teaspoon of peanut butter yesterday and a tablespoon of refried beans today...still no problem....i am worried though that i will stretch my stomach and not even know it. -
I am doing much better thank you!! How are you doing?? I am pretty hungry and have started to incorporate certain pureed foods in my diet. Like refried beans and cream of wheat....

I wanted to check in with you to see how you were doing? I hope you are feeling better. Has some of the gas left? Keep walking is what I hear everyone say.

May 10-14 Banders--How's it going? Share.
izaiahsmommy replied to anglov's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded on the tenth. It wasn't until the sixth day of my recovery that I really felt better. I has a lot of issues with gas. I still feel pretty bloated. Having a hard time getting all of my protein. I had clear liquids first 24 hours and now for the next two weeks i can incorporate cottage cheese, and yogurt into my diet. Next monday which is day 15, I will be able to move to pureed foods like applesauce and potatoes! I am so excited for that! I work overnights and this is my first shift back. Feelin pretty good! I have lost a total of 20lbs in the past three weeks(two weeks was pre op diet of Optifast). My belly is really swollen still though and very bruised. -
