BashFulNBouncy 0 Posted May 30, 2008 Hello everyone. I am BashFul from Houston, Texas and I was banded May 16, 2008, at Park Plaza Hospital. The procedure was quick and painless.......I was up and walking within no time, eager to go home. By the end of the day I was home. The first 3 days I had no appetite, I but made my self sip on some homemade chicken broth, Protein Drink (Isopure-pineapple, orange and banana) very tasty. I slept most of the time but able to get up and walk on my treadmill 2-3 times a day, but not 30 minutes each, just through out the day:sleep:. This made me feel better, the walking helped me to relieve the gas on my left side. I have not been filled as of yet, so far so good:thumbs_up:. I am able to eat fish small portions, grits (watered down) oatmeal and cream of wheat. For vegetables mushy --broccoli and green Beans.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
webenchantressd 0 Posted May 30, 2008 Wow, that's great! I was banded 5/23, and I just started to eat scrambled eggs, cottage cheese and applesauce. Can't fit only like 3-4 oz. I asked my Dr. about that today and he said that might be all I can fit. I hope he didn't mean forever. I had a terrible time with the gas; it made it hard for me to breath and hard to get rid of. I really didn't have any appetite until today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sugrbear 1 Posted May 30, 2008 Hey bashfulnbouncy, congratulations, I am also from Houston, I had mine at Physcian surgery center, but my Dr also uses Park Plaza, I will bet we have the same Dr. Your diet sounds the same!! So does your recovery. If he is the same, he is great. I just had my third fill today, and am doing well. I am losing what I call slow and steady, no restriction at all. No bad side affects yet. Lost lots of inches too!!! I was banded March 28. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
