Heatherooni 0 Posted June 23, 2008 (edited) Hi there, My name is Heather. I'm 6 days days out of surgery from the Lap Band. My incisions are healing up nicely and so far I'm feeling really good. I've been following the suggestions in the Book I got from my dietitian but I'm starting to notice my hunger is coming back faster then I had hoped. So I was wondering if this happened to anyone else after surgery. And how did you deal with it? I called the hospital today where I had my surgery and they told me I could start having a few things that are in the next stage for mushy/grounded foods. So I was wondering what some of you think I should try that would keep me filled up for a little bit? Also did you stick to the sugar free stuff? Because some of the stuff has a nasty after taste, so I was wondering if something will happen if I have something like a Proteien shake with 20 grams of sugar rather then less then 14? Like the dumping with the Bypass? Thanks ahead of time. Any input I can get will be greatly appreciated it.

Angelyco 0 Posted June 23, 2008 The good thing about the Lap-Band is that you don't get the dumping thing Nothing bad happens when you have sugar, but that's why it's harder for some people to lose weight with the band, so it's just something to be careful with.
