hey there im about 6 weeks post band now, found the 4 weeks a struggle, i had smoothies bought frozen berries orange juice a bit of ice cream or frozen yogurt and mushed them in a blender. Had yops and yogurts by end of 2nd week i was having small bit of mash potato mixed through soup cos i couldnt stick it anymore. Hope that helps and best of luck!!!

my post op is as follows - 2-3 weeks liquids then 2 weeks Purees then 2 weeks soft foods...im looking at the following and have shopped and pre-shopped (on-line for delivery in the next few weeks lol)

Liquids (I am to make these thicker in the 3rd week, add thicker soups etc)

• Soups (strained or clear)
• smoothies
• Slimfast shakes
• Protein shakes
• tea n coffee
• custard
• mousses
• yoghurt's

Purees (including above list and adding)

• thicker soups
• stewed apples/pears etc
• custard
• rice pudding
• Scrambled eggs
• tuna mayo
• sloppy mash
• creamed corn (makes yummy Chinese soup)
• mashed banana (in custard )

Soft foods (All of above and adding)

• Mince and mash
• fish pie (mash not pastry)
• poached eggs
• poached fish
• casseroles (meat cut tiny)
• stews (meat cut tiny)
• cod in sauce
• fish soups

Its going to be hard I know but not as hard as trying to by a nice looking swimsuit !!!!!:cry::cry:

and hopefully the results will be good as after the soft stage I will be on holiday in Cyprus for 8 days then home to my first fill....when its back to the soft stuff and purees again I guess

Any other food suggestions very gratefully received

My post op was as follows:-

Days 1-3, liquids only
Days 3-7, soft foods only
From Day 7, reintroduce normal foods slowly.

2-3 weeks liquids ! you have a tuff surgeon to please there

I know ! its Proffesor Nadey Hakim he has a reputaition as tough but good this is about him

Professor Nadey Hakim
is a Consultant General Surgeon and the 35th world president of the International College of Surgeons. He’s published over 150 peer-reviewed papers and has written many books about weight loss surgery.

When I was researching I looked at the surgeons as part of my research as was very pleased to find I could have my surgery done by him so close to home
