REDDGIRL1209 0 Posted March 4, 2013 I was banded on 2/20/13. This is my second surgery. My band slipped and my dr. put in an new band. I was on stage 1 liquids for the first week. Now I am on stage 2 pureed. Is that considered mushy/soft foods Does anyone know how long I am on stage 2? And what is the next stage? I am not sure if I follow the same stage pattern as the first time I was banded. Please help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every Dr. seems to have his own ideas, didn't yours give you some type of info packet? 1 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toddy 758 Posted March 4, 2013 Every doctor is different so no one can really answer that question except your doctor. Call their office, I'm sure they'd be happy to help -- I would hope, anyway! 1 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
