my first PB!

[Josette]

I guess I've graduated in to the true lapband life. hehehe. I had my first fill on tuesday and yesterday I thought I had no restriction. Well this morning I found out I do when I tried to eat eggs and toast. Two bites in and I felt the lump on my chest. :eek: Then the slim started. ewwwwwwwwww. That is horrible. I ran to the bathroom here at work and threw up and ahhhhhhhhh... relief! I guess I'm relieved that I'm past that first PB and know what to expect from here on out. Should I not eat solids for the rest of the day?

Josette, Congrats? I like the "I thought I had no restriction" part....:lol:

Liquids till dinner, then very mushy for dinner. Slow down. Some folks can't do eggs. Give it some time before you try that again. And make sure scrambled eggs are still shiny. That helps. It might also be the toast that gave you trouble? small bites and chew...now you know! Well, you knew before but nothing like a good PB to bring it home, right?

Uh Oh!! Stick to liquids and soft mushies to keep from getting on the PB Merry-Go-Round. Drink some aloe vera juice at bedtime to help soothe and heal swollen stoma tissue. Hang in there!
