Ineedalapband 0 Posted September 6, 2008 Its truly amazing to me how different our post op diets are. I was just reading another bandster is on full liquids for a month, others banded the same day as I was (Aug 20) are still on mushies, etc. I was able to move to salads, chicken and turkey today and had a chicken salad for dinner and a turkey sandwich on whole wheat toast for lunch. I haven't had any problem eating anything and wonder if there is anything even in there! I just hope I don't gain any of my preop weight back! I don't get my first fill until Sep 22. Anyway, just thought it was really odd how different our diets are. I was only on liquids a few days, mush a few days, softs a few days and now onto regular food. I can gradually add in ground meat, ham, etc over the next few weeks, but there is no specific date for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odizzydori 0 Posted September 7, 2008 my diet was similar to yours. by 16 days I was on a full diet. Keep in mind you wont feel a lot of restriction until about the 3rd or 4th fill. so continue to follow a strict diet so you dont gain during this time. good luck on your journey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
