So my lapband slipped and I had to have it fixed. Just wondering if this happened to you what was your post op diet?

I went for my 3rd fill and there was a RUDE nurse practicioner there who did it. I was so full I couldnt swallow Water without it hurting..I had to come back a week later to get some out..I had to pay a 75.00 office visit! I just thought that was crazy! I didnt tell the nurse practictioner to put that much in there!! So I was just wondering if anyone else had experienced the same thing?? I did get my unfill but now I am not feeling restriction at all and I am suppose to go tomorrow to get a fill (this appt was set up a while back) however the dr office called me on Friday and wanted to cancel. I want to keep the appt though..I dont want it to hurt like it did but I do wanna feel full..I am starting to get very frustrated!!:biggrin:

SO I have moved on to solid foods and I am having no trouble eating anything..but that is the problem..I feel like I am eating way too much..I have only lost 15 pounds since op..Havent gotten a fill yet..im just starting to worry I did all this for nothing

I read that I may not lose any weight 6 weeks post op and I was just wondering if anyone else did? Seems weird to me to not eat anything for weeks and not lose weight!

Ok I have posted before that I am struggling. I am 8 days post op and I ate some beans & fried potatoes today!! I am so scared I messed something up!! I am not in pain & didn't feel uncomfortable at all. I am ready to stick with full liquids till next friday I just hope I didn't mess anything up!

I was banded on 10/30 right not I am on full liquids..but I am becoming very bored eating the same thing over and over..I mostly consume, a slim fast, chicken broth or really thinned out cream of chicken Soup,. Does anyone have any other suggestions of what may be allowed in the full liquid stage? Thanks

Im hungry my stomachs grumbling..I feel like crying I just want some solid food.. I know this is what I signed up for but I didnt know it would be this hard!! I am starting to think I made a huge mistake!!:drool:

I am 5 days post op I cant handle one more sip of water

Do they mean the red, orange purple kind or can it be any? LIke I notices some sugar free fudgsicles..(I am on full liquid phase)

Thanks I will try those.

Ok I had my surgery on 10/30 I weighed 193 now I weight 196? what gives I have had nothing but liquid? Also I am starting to get sick with chest congestion usually drink oj and take mucinex but I know I cant now.

Im just wondering what would happen? Would you get sick?

uh and yes I have gained 3 pounds post op but others have too and it was not from eating

Actually I have done very well post op and havent cheated..I was just wondering because my husband asked me..and I told him other than the band healing I didnt know

I guess this just isnt for me!! I cannot stick to pre op diet and have only lost one pound. I have tried but I cant I did good all day today but then this evening i ate supper with everyone else..My surgery was sch. for the 30th but I guess I should just cancel

Thanks for the help everyone..I didnt cancel my surgery and I was banded on 10/30 they said everything went well and I only ended up with 4 incisions

I got banded this morning..My diet papers to say drink room temp. Water is it ok to put the sugar free flavor packages in there as long as its still room temp? Also said I could have broth/bouillon is there a limit on that? Also are we suppose to sleep on our backs only??

Thanks but I have already gone through a 12 month diet and pysch testing for the surgery..its just I cannot handle just liquids...i know i will have to do them for some time after the band which makes this 2 week period even harder

My surgery date is OCt 3oth..my pre op diet is 2 slimfast one Protein Drink and sugar free jello..I cannot just eat that I am starving not to mention weak! I have a physically and mentally demanding job not to mention kids!! I mean I know this is not the first topic on this but seriously if I could stick to liquids I wouldnt need lapband!! I havent cheated really bad>>I mean I havent gone out and eaten a cheeseburger or quesadilla but I have ate some chicken broth and cream of chicken Soup some egg whites and some pieces of deli meat.. For me its more the need to not feel weak!! I am so afraid I might not get banded if I dont make it through this!

No there is a protein shake in there also but still not enough!! Im about to just give up and be fat forever! I already ate today!
