I found this to have informative information:

They have a wonderful guide under diet guides you can find your surgery type. The lap band guide really is beneficial in explaning "why" you are eating mushie food and why your not eating more and when your getting your fill ect...

Hope this helps

I have not even tried to eat pizza. I am sure I can but I havent tried it.

I can eat almost anything. and as long as I remember not to drink with my meal I have restriction....somewhat.

I eat less then I did before the surgery. I am excercising more but havent lost any weight since the surgery.

I dont understand this but my DR said I am doing fine.

Well, I hate to say it, "But, welcome to Banster Hell". I've read this so much both the waiting and the hunger driving everyone crazy. Had my surgery on the 18th of Dec and now I'm feeling great and ready to move on. I don't have to go back to work until the 8th of Feb and I'm starting to work out at the Y. The first week after surgery...no hunger and I was losing weight like crazy. Then Christmas day I got to get back Protein and I stopped taking the narcotics and I started to get hungry. So I started adding Soups that had a lot of salt. Gained weight back. Went to the Dr and he didn't say a word about it other than my BP was too high, so I went back on my BP pills and cut out the Soup. Lost 8lbs the next to days peeing myself to death. So now I'm keeping it as low carb as possible and soft foods and since surgery date I've lost 14lbs and that I'm happy with. I aslo don't get my first fill until Feb 2, and did they tell you guys about the rules for getting fills? For my DR, its liquids 24 before the fill, nothing to eat that day and then liquids 48hrs after...sucks...but I'll do it because, dammit I'm doing this this time for good.

PS... sorry this was so long but I thought I'd catch up with everyone.
