Recommended Posts

I am 2 weeks banded.I went to my family function today n there was so much food. I prepared my lunch bag with yogurt Protein Shake n some broth. However I wanted what they were eating. I sucked the seasons from 4 jerked wingets. I put a spoonful of onion dip n my hand n ate that. Then I went n set down n ate my food that brought from home. I was so week. I did not bite the chicken n swollen. I just wanted to taste it. Should I feel so bad? Did I do so bad? I plan to cut back tomorrow n only have the protium shakes n water.???¢

It's not a matter of doing "bad" or cutting back tomorrow. It's a matter of letting your stomach heal from surgery. It's been sutured, manipulated, and overall wounded. Cheating on your post op diet puts you at very high risking of ripping a suture and/or causing a band slip.

Hopefully you didn't do any damage. Just stick to your post op diet from now on- regardless of what you want and what social function you're at. It's simply not worth the risk to cheat.

Mis73- thanks and u are right. I will definitely stick to my post op diet. I think I will skip the social functions for a while or don't stay as long. May b just stay for 1 - 2 hours. Definitely not 5.

I'm 10 days banded and really feel great. Smoochie food, liquid and Protein. Hope you get back on track. Hell we all slip once in a while. My issue is not sipping liquid, rather drinking a mouthful at one time.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
