Ruby replied to emmas mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My Dr said he used a 32 size boogie.. so far so good. -
I also used Dr Rod and Dr Elmo Aramburo..(juarez location- they work together.. My surgery was July 27th and i have lost almost 30lbs.. he is very attentive and professional. Loved his team. If you have any more questions message me.

I am doing okay.. trying to stay focused on what i am eating. I am having pureed foods but already feel anxious on moving to any other stage.. working on getting the protein and liquids IN... lol You seem to be doing well.. i dont think you can eat more than 4 spoons.. thats was i eat on an egg white too.. about 3-4 bites..

Ruby replied to Oviedo Duchess's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi Duchess: Im in Florida too.. although i got my sleeve in Juarez, Mexico...on the 27th of July.. so we are but a few days apart.. lol I have been struggling with the pureed foods and eating too fast. Other than that i have been very blessed because i dont have nausea and the pain is really gone from the incisions.. yaay.. I am just trying to wrap my head around the smaller tummy and portions.. etc. Regards~ -
Im a week and a few days out.. almost 2 weeks.. I am feeling like i could eat more than i thought. I was having 5 small meals.. but i may have to change it to 4 not sure.. I have been losing consistently..despite me thinking i am eating too much. I need to remember not to eat and drink at the same time. i have forgotten and taken a sip of something and then freaked out because i did.. lol.. This is all new and I have realized i need to really learn to listen to my body.. and continue the process.. and today i am trying to have more liquids and Protein.. having a hard time with the powder Isopure.. (i hate the after taste).. Thanks for your posts.. they have been very helpful.

i just had surgery last wednesday!! and I have to be honest ... i gained weight before my surgery.. i could not stop eating thinking this is the last time i will have this much nachos, or the entire burger.. etc... i can tell you that i wished i hadnt because i would be farther along in weight loss.. BUT i understand what you are going through because that was me about 3 weeks ago!!!! hang in there.. and try your best.

Ruby replied to CCinINdiana's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I need to get the 4 oz cups or bowls. Just today I was drinking broth and im a work just sipping, sipping.. all of the sudden i felt like i was going to burst.. I kind of agree with the comment made about stop before your full because honestly FULL doesnt feel good!! I go to full liquids on Saturday. getting anxious..
