4-6 Weeks after banding

White06 · November 15, 2006

What are some examples of foods you can eat during your 4th, 5th, and 6th week after banding? I ate some chinese food yesterday and it made me feel horrible, I hope to never do that to myself again!!!!

I am so tired of this liquad stuff. Please share some of the foods you eat during these last two weeks. I've got to get back on track, NOW!!

Also, can you have a slippage before you have a fill because of eating "chinese crab angles"?:omg:

Hi Katina,

If you go to the food threads, you will find some excellent food suggestions, for each stage. Look for the Food Heading on the main page.

Meanwhile, I know you will hate hearing this...but...since you had pain with the Chinese food yesterday, you really do need to continue liquids for another full day. You may have caused swelling due to the Chinese food, and if you did, it will seem as if ALL food is causing problems, when that will not likely be the cause.

I would begin with some smooth yogurt, or pudding, and then move on from there. Check the food threads, you should find lots of ideas! And don't forget to use your blender to make your own versions of things!

Good Luck, hope you feel better soon!

Katina, I am in my 6th week. I love Chinese, but I wouldn't have attempted that just yet. Of course, the Chinese foods I love are deep fried and smothered in sugary sauces.

I keep to fairly simple recipes most of the time, but I did have a slice of pizza Hut thin and crispy pizza this weekend and did fine.

I also made meat sauce this weekend which I would ordinarily pour over spaghetti, but I just ate the sauce and made it really meaty so I'd get lots of Protein.

There are a million ideas. You might try checking out some websites for low-carb diets. The recipes there will give you lots of Protein.< /p>
