I was in for just day surgery. I had Dr. Spivak, and he recommends Clear Liquids for the first 24-48 hours, then a mushy diet for 4 weeks. That is anything like creamy Soups, yogurt, SF pudding, SF Jello, or anything of baby food consistency. We can also eat veggies, as long as they are chopped up small (or blended), and well-cooked (so they are soft). I got a call from the dr's office today, and asked the nurse about it. She said it was great (the hot and sour soup)...but I did NOT eat the meat in it. I have felt great, and hope I'm not doing anything wrong?!?!?

Hope today's banders had uneventful surgeries, and that you

are taking good care of yourselves!

To JennyC724 and <O:plosin’it, hope all goes well tomorrow! We'll be

thinking of you and hope you will check in when you are feeling

up to it.

Cheers,

I was in for just day surgery. I had Dr. Spivak, and he recommends clear liquids for the first 24-48 hours, then a mushy diet for 4 weeks. That is anything like creamy Soups, yogurt, SF pudding, SF Jello, or anything of baby food consistency. We can also eat veggies, as long as they are chopped up small (or blended), and well-cooked (so they are soft). I got a call from the dr's office today, and asked the nurse about it. She said it was great (the hot and sour soup)...but I did NOT eat the meat in it. I have felt great, and hope I'm not doing anything wrong?!?!?

I was banded by Dr. Spivak on May 2 2007 and your'e not doing anything wrong because I was told as long as it's chewed very very very well and goes down with no problems i was ok to eat. Plus about the last week of the 4 week mushies you need to start trying to see what solid foods you can get down. So keep up the good work. We have been banded by the Best and the Rest is easy:D

I am eating more mushies than I am supposed to. I just hate to drink all those liquids and not feel full. I have been chewing so much that the food is liquid before it goes down. What do you all think about yogurt? Does it add to the gas problems? That is what my nurse said, but I had not heard that. I am headed to fitday.com to see how much I have had today, LOL!

I was banded May 3rd. I'm not sure if i'm doing good, because I can't sit @ a chair for very long. I had been walking 50 min. total, but yesterday I had a set back. I was in extreme pain near the port sight. The area hurt to the touch; no fever, just pain like someone had punched my side. I'm scheduled to go back to work May 21, but I'm not sure i'll be ready. As for eating; remember the 30-20-30 rule, stop Water 30 min. before eating, eat for 20 min. and no water 30 min after eating. I've lost 6 lbs.

Hey all :-)

I went in at 6:30 am and got home about 30 minutes ago and everything seems just fine. I feel steady walking and can get up and down without much trouble. I'm sipping Water and walking around frequently. Planning to try some broth or Jello later, then I can start on yogurt or Protein Drinks late tomorrow as tolerated. The pain med is working well so far. I think the only pain may come from the gas in my shoulders when I lay down. I'll just prop up some pillows when I decide to go to bed. I have 5 small incisions - largest is about 2".

The doctor was surprised to find a hiatal hernia near where my esophagus joins my stomach. This explains the reflux I've complained of for years. He fixed that first, then needed to place the band just a bit lower than is normal. He anticipates very little if any difference in the effectiveness of the band due to this change. Before I left the hospital I was taken to "flouroscopy" to drink barium (strawberry!) and take some pictures. They came out perfectly in both areas.

I go back to see the Dr. in 10 days. All in all, a great day!!

Christine

      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.
