What was your 1st meal after being banded?


Recommended Posts

My first meal was Christmas dinner.....Ham, potato casserole and a small salad and then had a fancy jello salad for dessert. No bread, was afraid to try that!

I was banded last Thursday, so it will be another 2 1/2 weeks before I can eat a meal!

It will be a Lean Cuisine Hey, after 4 days of liquids and another 17 looking me in the face, a Lean Cuisine looks like a Christmas dinner with all the works! :lb12:

I agree Jena, at this point a little tiny meal sounds like a feast. Hope you had a good trip home. Didn't see you at all after surgery. I am doing great mostly just need to rest a lot and have these little painful burps that drive me crazy.

First meal after surgery: chicken broth, jello and apple juice. I ate little to nothing but did drink my juice. Then had to make it to the restroom real quick that night!

First dinner after liquids/soup - a quesdilla (didn't eat rice or beans). Chicken guesdilla with guacamole. Nothing to drink. Maybe a chip or two and some salsa.

Day 1 on pre-op diet and I'm feeling the pain...ykwim!!! Tell me what you ate for your 1st meal...I'm sure it will make me feel better.

It was great meeting you and your husband. You are both amazing people.

I've done great except for starving. Hunger won't kill me, hunger won't kill me, hunger won't kill me...my mantra. Gloria and I had a great trip home, there were some interesting people on the plane and it made the trip go by fast.

Today is the first day I've been uncomfortable with soreness. I haven't had any problems with gas or burping. I don't know what the deal is with that! Once I feel a little gas building up, I take one of those gas-x strips and that helps.

Check out the thread Lisa started for the May 8 bandsters!
