Banded Feb 15Th

[AngieKardash 1]

Hello all my name is Angie Gelinas. I was banded Feb 15th of this year and I had one fill since. I habe a basic question. And I'd like to c if anyone else out there exleriences this. Ok so even as a newbie I.ahve had my share of "cheat" days but I have eaten things that im told affect ppl that have had bariatric surgery. Like for instance bread and Pasta. It does not affect me whatsoever. Im not complaining..i havent once even experienced this so called PBing. And although im not cimplaining it has me wondering if this is normal or if something is not right...i would GREATLY welcome ANY feedback on this!!!

I could eat bread and Pasta up to 5cc. It took me months to get there. Your probably not going to "feel" the restriction for a couple more fills yet. I would be easy with these 'cheat' days you been having and let your body continue to heal. Good luck with your journey.

It is still very early in your band journey. Right now you shoukd be focusing on following your drs diet and the RULES. Most people can eat bread, Pasta, meat etc in the beginning, but we dont becauae we are trying to learn new eating habits so that when we are at restriction we wont be constantly PBing and vomiting because we ate the wrong foods in the wrong way!! Good luck and try to follow your drs orders!!

I am one month out according to doc I can have Pasta and bread in moderation. They gave me a dvd with everything I can eat, how much, quantity and quality. I can have starches but they dont like you too because it has no real nutritional value. I can say that the only thing I have eliminated from my diet is beef to hard to break down. I dont eat it pasta or bread daily, had it once last week. I can also have any zero soda, I was suprised that I can have soda. I eat like i'm suposed to, right now I'm only eating 2 full meals a day since fill last week, and I feel great. I do need to beef of the workout. Good luck
