Is Food Stuck In My Lap Band?



Recommended Posts

I am exactly 1 week post op. I have been mOstly good with liquids, buts st nite I ate watermelon, I think it's stuck? I feel ok, just full...... I think I'm actually unsure???

Would I knw if the food was stuck? Is it painful? Would I knw for sure?

I kinda feel like there's fullness in my neck.

BTW I'm so glad I found this forum, so comforting to knw I'm not the only one with crazy food thoughts :)

Also does anyone have thoughts on scrambled eggs start of 2nd wk?

Unless you ate the whole thing, you're unlikely to be stuck. It's a little early for foods like that, but you knew it was too

soon, but thought you'd try anyway. You probably irritated your stoma. I hope you were given a list of foods, and when

you could eat them. Your stomach is still healing and you need to give it a chance. You need to go back on liquids for

a day or two to see if that full feeling goes away. From there on, follow your dietitians instructions.

Ditto !

Your job is to heal ! So don't start putting things to chew in your mouth, when it should be liquids.< /p>

Once you heal. Sure scrambled eggs Mashed Potatoes, Hearty Soups, even Chili...

but give it a chance first.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
