Hi i have a leaving do for someone at work, i will be 26 days post band and i'm wondering what i could eat? the people at work dont know that ive had this surgery so that might make it harder or maybe i shouldn't go. what do you lovely guys and gals think? Hx

Its hard to say really as everyone is different post op - ie what advice they are given by their provider and what they can manage. You have a few choices, as you will be only a month post op and you dont want people to know:

1) Go and say you have an upset stomach so can only manage soup!

2) Go and try a plain ommelete / foo yung type dish but take it really steadily!

3) Dont go - but in my humble opinion I wouldnt let your band spoil your social life.

Thanks Mazza, i will just be coming to the end of pureed stage and on to mushy so think i will go with the soup idea and then maybe have a few spoons of sauce from other girls plates. thanks again Hx

Personally, I'd suddenly and mysteriously take ill and sadly have to miss the whole thing - I'm not telling many people either and I'd worry that it would be obvious that I wasn't eating normally x

I would just say I was having to eat lightly as I had bloating earlier. Thinking it may be IBS. Then Iris will tell a story about her sisters IBS. Then no one will blink an eye lid after that lol

Just go and have a good time xxx
