BANDED 12/2/08 too much food?



Recommended Posts

As long as you are drinking in small amount over the course of the day you should be fine. And the first week you will feel hungry if you are on Thin Clear liquids like I was.

I remember sitting at work and having my stomach growl so loud. Your not really putting that much in there for it to work with, but that's the point.

I got a huge packet of eating instructions from my surgeon's office -- what did your doctor give you? I personally would not have been able to drink the Tomato Soup (watered down or not) for the first week. For me it was basically juice, Water, broth and SF popsicles.

Tomato Soup! You are lucky. I was banded on 12/1/08 and Like trayrenee I was told the only things I can have are Clear Liquids and Jello. I would kill right now for some Tomato Soup. LOL. I think you'll be alright if you just make sure it's slowly taken in. I drank some diet Tang this morning to fast and it felt like some clubbed me in the stomach for about 30 seconds.

Best of luck to you.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
