Fatima19881 1 Posted May 1, 2014 My name is Fatima. In July 2012 I had the lap band done. I was 245 pounds. In April 2014 I was 220 pounds. My lap band was not working for me. My doctor perfomed the Band to Sleeve revision on 04/24/2014. I hope this journey will be successful for me. I should also note that while I live in the US, I don't have the insurance to cover for my surgeries. Thus, I traveled to Jordan and I had it done there. When I came back home to the US, I was going to a doctor in NJ for my lap band adjustments. I had just one question about food options. I had my surgery one week ago and was told I can have pureed foods. What are some good options? The diet plan that my doctor gave me didn't really give me many choices. I hope everyone is successful in their journeys for losing weight. 1 msfitn2014 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got some baby food, applesauce, blended smooth Soups, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese (puréed in blender), pudding, Protein Shakes, I also try to add unflavored Protein to everything.
