LAP-BAND^® Surgery and LAP-BAND^® Discussion Forum

I was banded on the 9th of this month, Im almost a week out, Im still on liquids, but I have added small amounts of food to my diet, I chew and chew til its liquid. Would this hurt me? Or do you highly recommend that I go back to full liquids to my mushy stage which is next weekend. I only have 2 weeks prior, to surgery, and 2 weeks after for liquids, up until today, Ive done great. But, its made me sick just drinking all the time. I have a gym membership, and have progressed one day at a time. But feeling lots better. I feel a little guilty that I ate some things today, which wasnt much at all. Any suggestions?
