Thanks all for your replies!
seriously-I think the fainting was due to me not eating enough at the hospital, but that was partly their fault, they tried to give me crackers and cheese for lunch one day!

but also my apetite was so low, I found it difficult to eat, drinking water was fine though. Im not fainting now though as im getting enough nutrician
ThinK-did you have the same as me? as it would be interesting to compare our progress if we had the op a few days apart. I don't know if to qualify as being banded you have to have more than two? as thats all ive got

then again I am getting more soon. Im finding it easier and easier day by day to get food down me. I think its important not to have too many sweet foods (like I was in the hospital). I had mashed potato and cheese last night (all blended) which was nice but if you want to avoid dairy you could try it with gravy instead. Only dont put it in a zip-n-squeeze like I did as it burst and went all over me!

You could try different soups aswell. Oh and Im having wheetabix every morning, it really is easy to eat all soaked in milk with a baby spoon, or can you really not eat any dairy at all?, as most of my foods contain dairy of some sort. That must be tough
Meyaten-Yeh my apetite is growing now and im starting to find new foods that I can eat
Andantae-

was that a hint with the photos? Will post them today. I suppose the fainting did keep them on their toes a bit, although it wasn't a pleasant experience I must say.
I really want to go outside as I hate being stuck in the house but I'm worried about people's reaction to me. At the moment I can't decide whether I look more like I have put on weight and its all gone to my face or if I've had an allergic reaction to peanuts...
