Look at the pre op & post op diet to make sure what u can have if u want to be sucsefful ,it is hard since u r so new so just make the choice for u and yes u still can be sociable but don't over do it and I didn't go out to dinner for about 2-3 months or even eat a whole meal for a while cause I didn't want anything to go wrong as I paid way to much money to get the way I did and to get the weigh that I had put on off (banded) lol so it is your choice, just remember why u wanted to get the band , hope this helped.

I was also banded on the 24th I'm not to have anything other than "full liquids" at this stage... I could not even imagine having solid foods yet! If I were you, I'd make sure to check the post op diet plan and follow it... You don't wanna hurt yourself while healing. According to my plan it takes 3-4 weeks to be back on a regular diet.

Take your time and best of luck!

I'd stay away from Gummy foods (breads, tortillas, etc). You can go to social outings, of course. If you aren't sure about something, get a tiny portion and eat SLOW. when I was learning, I'd eat a food and think "that went down good", then five minutes later be stuck. Lol. It's a learning experience for sure. And everyone is different. Like I said while you're learning... Small portions, small bites. Chew a lot.
