betty20032001 7 Posted November 14, 2013 Whats everyone eating these days? I can drink the liquids pretty normally. So much better than the stuck feeling from the band. I am working on pureed now. Seems ok I get full extremely easily. My acid reflux is pretty bad. Its getting worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattj28tx 1 Posted November 14, 2013 I am 13 days postop and still doing the coffee and Protein shakes for Breakfast and then just Water all day. I am not hungry at all and my doc said if Im not hungry skipping a meal here and there is ok. For dinner I am still having Soups, Water down potatos or sometimes just a greek yogurt. I also get full very quickly, usually with in 3-4 bites. Do you feel like you still have a band at all? Sometimes with my Soups it feels almost like it is getting stuck, but then I feel fine. I think I must still have some sweeling from where the band was. Matt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
betty20032001 7 Posted November 14, 2013 Well thats good... the weight is not melting off like I would like, but it will be ok. I do not get the stuck feeling, but I do get the super stuffed feeling really fast. I can eat about 2 oz in a sitting. I try to drink a lot of Water also. One problem i do have is this Protein Shake thing. I get nauseated drinking it. Even thinking about it makes me want to throw up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I drink the GNC Total Lean Cookies and Cream flavor. Its pretty horrible by itself, but not bad at all with coffee.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
betty20032001 7 Posted November 14, 2013 Hmmmm good idea. I didnt think of mixing. Man it is a little early in the game to not be wanting Protein anymore. Maybe hot chocolate for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bremartus 76 Posted November 15, 2013 I just came off a month of full liquid diet from my band problem and I found that Forza Pro has the best taste of many of the Protein shake stuff and it mixes well too. They come in some great flavors and can be mixed easily with coffee or cream of wheat and things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
