SVanDyke 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Hi everyone...i was banded on July 8th and have lost 41 lbs. Wooohoo! The only problem is...I am SO sick of meat, cheese, and eggs. I have four more weeks until i can add in vegetables. How did all of you get though the post op diet without going crasy! Any feedback would be greatly appreciatede! Thank you so much!:cry_smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shamrockgirl60 1 Posted August 6, 2008 I am being banded tomorrow and my post op diet is different, I can add veggies and some starch after the 6th week, in moderation, but have to eat Protein first, then veggies and then starch till full. We can eat Soups that you can eat with a fork like the chunky kind and not drink the broth also I love squash and when the butternut comes out I love to add some cinnamon, and nutmeg and splenda and then mash it up and eat it. It's my favorite veggie. Could do the same (without the spices) with sweet potato and turnip and carrots. Crock pot cooking was recommended too, like a good stew, and save the broth. Eat the soft meat, then veggies and potatos. Lots of choices, just make sure that the meats are very very tender and moist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
