Amount of Food you can eat

[Guest guest]

I have just about decided to go ahead with the lapband. I'm so nervous

about the amount of food that I will be able to eat though. Can

someone walk me through what to expect the first three months in terms

of what I can and can't eat and the amounts. I have read the post opt

diet of clear and soft liquids the first 14 days and then soft foods

the next 15 but, I'm curious as to how much normal food I will be able

to eat after the first 30 days. I have read that you can only eat

things about the size of a kernel of corn. I'm having a hard time

imagining that. Does your band allow you to gradually increase the

food you can eat or is it always just one or two bites of food with

each meal.
