Question:
I'm getting a LapBand 04/09. Looking for a Post-Op food shopping list.

I want to stock up at home and work with the right things for me to eat right after surgery. Where can I find a good list? Thanks!    — Beej53 (posted on April 2, 2009)

I got my list from my nutritionist at my last pre-op appointment I think. There are specific foods for specific stages (days) post-op and should be decided by your physician's office. Clear liquids to full liquids to mushy foods to soft foods to full. Slow and steady process. I stocked up on low sodium chicken broth, Fuze low carb drink, Powerade Zero drink, eggs, tuna in water and cottage cheese for the initial process. Hope you like scrambled eggs, egg salad, tuna salad and cottage cheese. This was my protein for a while. Best of luck. Dawn Vickers, RN, BLC, CLC
