Same with mine hun... two weeks liquid. Cant wait for Saturday to try a bit of puree something...lol...bit scared to move on to this stage though because that means more calories and I seem to be losing the weight a bit slow already... Im addicted to the scales and not seeing the results I expected...x[/QUOTE

Hmmm, that sounds nice. I did a bit of shopping yesterday and bought some weight watchers fish pie and mac and cheese... I am going to puree those and start from there then build up for there...
 
Hi im Rachel, I have just joined the forum today and i had my gasteric band surgery a week today (12th june), my surgery was carried out with the hospital group Dolan park Birmingham. :)
 
I'm coming up to my surgery on the 28th and starting to get really nervous now as I've never had any major surgery before.

Also haven't been put on the pre-op diet until just a few days before. Trying to not have a "last meal" mentality but it's difficult!

Hi Racheljxx and welcome to the forum....wishing you all the best on your weight loss journey...x
 
Mmmm I just had some Ready Brek as my first purée. It was like the sweet heavenly taste of nectar...

I can just imagine.... I will be saying the same tomorrow when I have my first bit of puree as well... Im planning on having ready brek too... How well did you tolerate it and how much of it were you able to eat....

I tolerated it no problem. I allowed myself 3 dessertspoons because that's what my surgeon said to do, but honestly I could have eaten a lot more! I then had Greek yogurt for lunch with no probs and I'm having soup for dinner. I've realised though that this mean my protein levels are much lower today so tomorrow I'll probably add a protein shake to drink between meals.
 
Boost protein by adding skim milk powder to drinks ready break etc I even add to chicken soup and mash

Ok I see... Good idea to add a protein shake tomorrow..x
