. . . my tumbly! :) 2 days post op. Just giving an update! Haven't experienced the intense pain that a lot of people mentioned. Mostly bloated tummy and incision pain. Haven't had a lot of trouble drinking Water but can't mentally stomach anything else! I tried to eat Jello last night and broth today. Ich! Can't do it. May get better in a few days. :) Otherwise not so bad. Just resting a lot and trying to heal. :) Good luck to everyone and best wishes to all the new banders out there. :)

I have that rumbling feeling a lot also, and I was banded on the 11th as well. Are you drinking other things now? I'm living on lots of Protein Shakes and crystal light - 2 ounces at a time. :) Jello isn't in my allowed list of things to do... and turns out most broth is pretty icky, But, if you can get pho broth from a Vietnamese restaurant, it's delicious! :)

I'm post op day 2 and have been good with sf Jello and sf Popsicles. For broth I've been draining chicken noodle Soup and drinking the broth off that and it's actually good.

I just started transitioning from mushies. I tried shaved (as thin as they could slice it) smoked turkey from the deli. Then, I cut it into small pieces. No problem. Then, I tried ham the same way. I got sick almost immediately. So, I'm sticking to the nice, moist turkey. tuna goes down easily for me, too.

I'm eating creamy mashed potatoes made with chicken

broth watered down no lumps. It's so good. No milk or butter but added garlic powder. Also can cream of chicken Soup watered again with chicken broth. I bought at Walmart in baby section a package of hard plastic baby spoons. 10 for two bucks n put them in dishwasher fine. Also am snacking on sf Jello pudding, choc n vanilla. Hope that helps.

Live today like there is no tomorrow!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
