Marvie 0 Posted June 23, 2008 CHEMMAN9 Welcome I hope things are going well with you with you. I know I feel much better now than I did at day 3 or 4 every day a little better. Marvie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are correct. Each day the post-op pain is subsiding. Today (post-op day five), my doctor schedule allowed me to have thin cream based Soups. I had crab cream Soup. I didn't feel in any negative affects. Hopefully, the rest of my journey will progress this well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had the runs ever since....not nice!! lol Amanda, I will take your advice and stay away from Tomato. I tried low fat broccoli cheese Soup and diluted it with some chicken stock for dinner it was good. My husband of course asked if that was all I was eating.

Campbell's makes a Tomato bisque Soup that I was thinking of trying. Actually, I had it last year and it was great, but that was in my pre-lapband life.

Chemman9 0 Posted June 23, 2008 Going to go back to the safe chicken Soup tomorrow!! Your scale shows that you have already lost 12 pounds. That is great, congrats! My banding was done on the 17th, and I have only lost 9 pounds. It is most likely my fault. I have been too sore to exercise. I now feel well enough to start slowly exercising again tomorrow.
