[GurlieGirl0723 1]

Am I the only one.. I started to take a half of chicken breast and chopped it up but I know I'm suppose to be in mushy.. Does that count LOL.. I'm so hungry and when I smell other people foods around lunch time my stomach is growling so loud..

Am I gonna fail already ...

I'm thinking it needs to go into a food processor first to get really mushy...like baby food.

If you didnt get sick by now u should be ok, waatch those solid foods though until your post op

I know its been 7 days for me, I had to eat egg whites last night could not take the hunger pain anymore

So nice to know I'm not the only one feeling like this.

It's not that the food will make u sick, the issue is that ur stomach has to grind to process the food which can pop a stitch giving u problems later down the road (slips)

Hi all thanks for the input, u was banded on 4/5 and I'm on the mushy stage and I just needed chew something besides ice. I have been thinking of chicken ( so weird ) I know..

Well I cut and shredded as much and felt fine i meet with my doc this Friday for 2 weeks.. Soo excited about that..

I know I have no fill I'm suppose to give my body time to heal.. That's the purpose..
