First weekend eating out after being banded....HELP!

I was banded June 3rd & this weekend we're going to visit family & take in a ren faire. I'm a little nervous about finding stuff to eat because we'll be eating everywhere from the faire to fast food. I will be on solid food by then which does help but at home I have my 'safe' foods & my schedule.

Any tips or help is appreciated. I really want this weekend to go well.

I was on a srticter schedule than you, as per my surgeon. I had to eat mushies for much longer and only after that very slowly start with real solid food. If you do not have doctors/nutritionist plan or advice, I would suggest you just be carefull - you are only a little more than a week from surgery and don't want to cause any harm to you or the band. Try to enjoy other things at the fair (not just the food). Bring safe foods with you for when you do get hungry in case there is nothing there you are comfortable with. Trust me, I used to think EVERYTHING was about the food - thankfully, that has changed !! Just enjoy the day with whoever you are going with !

Go for broth soup and don't eat any chunks that seem scary. See if they have a ground turkey burger (don't eat the roll) or mashed potatoes and only eat a little. Just enough to enjoy and feel normal. Whatever you do eat nice and slow. I have a client lunch tomorrow 2 days after my first fill. I am hoping they have soup! Good Luck.

wow, your doc is wayyy more easy going than mine! I am on liquids for 2 weeks, them mushies for 2 weeks, then normal food...taking it very easy.
I would bring along a couple of cans of protein drinks...just to be safe!!!! Slim fast low carb is pretty good!

Im on liquids for one month!!!

WOW ur doc is cool LOL
