Thanks everyone for so many options, because all doctors are different ill probably look into the ones especially for bariatric patients to be safe.

I also get worried my sleeve will fail. Even moving from 4 to 8 oz an hour I was like oh geez am I stretching my sleeve too much? Now that I am on soft foods I get even more worried.

Wow everyone is doing awesome. I assume I'm in the slow loser category too since I'm down 17 lbs. I've already lost 15% of my body fat which they didn't expect until the 6th week out. I'm still super happy with my results. How much did you guys weigh at surgery? Start weight 231 Sw 223 CW 206

I was sleeved may 22nd and still don't have An appetite, which also means I can't tell when I'm full

I can't have it because I am allergic to artificial sweeteners, but my mom uses Splenda brown sugar. You can find it at about any grocery store next to Splenda. It comes in a bag instead of mini packets.

I ordered fish yesterday and the portion will last me 5 meals. I don't even think I can eat it before it goes bad. I just want a healthy kids meal!

How much weight did you lose the first week?
LadyKatie replied to Flup's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 15 days post op and have lost 17 lbs. -
I just got off liquids yesterday. I had it for two days. At first it was hard but then it got easier. I chewed ice non stop, because I just needed to chew something. I was allowed decaf coffee/tea. Broth, protein shakes, sf jello, and sf Popsicles. I say change up your flavors and chew ice or jello it'll get better!!

I just started having solid food yesterday and its definitely weird. I'm still not really hungry so I'm not sure when I'm full either. I have relied on my hiccups. As soon as I have one I'm done. Anyone else have this problem. I'm 15 days post op

This is so funny. After I was sleeved I couldn't have sex and wondered if seman was an approved liquid lmao!!

1week post op 72 oz fluid/day
LadyKatie replied to Wags's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am two weeks post op and just up to 64 oz a day. That is all my doctors want me at. Of course when it is hot I drink more. For me it took a weeks before I could even do 8 oz an hour. I don't know what your doctor says though. For me I drank everything with super tiny sips so I wouldn't have pressure in my new sleeve -
2 weeks post as of today. I am down 17 lbs and already have met 15% of body fat loss, which my Doctor didn't expect until 6 weeks out. Sw 223 Cw 206

LadyKatie replied to AutismMom's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Good luck on your surgery. I'm pear shaped and 5'3 but I'm only 2 weeks post op. I didn't have to do liquids before surgery, but I had two weeks of liquids following surgery. Today I get instructions for my next step. I will say in 14 days I've lost 17 lbs. so just follow instructions and you will do great!! -
You sound like me. I get jealous some people on here get yogurt and cottage cheese and applesauce in the first post op liquids I don't! My day looks like: Protein shake for Breakfast Decaf iced coffee for lunch Protein shake for dinner. Sf popsicles and lots of water between. Tomorrow I get the next step can't wait!!

I use syntha-6 and it is so delicious!!! I get chocolate and use like 5 ice cubes and 1 cup fat free milk. It tastes like a chocolate milkshake!!

Sleeved on May 20 and have questions
LadyKatie replied to csutton22's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Your lucky you get cottage cheese, applesauce, and mashed potatoes on your post op full liquids. My liquids are water, protein shakes, milk, decaf tea or coffee, and soup broths. I can have sugar free jello but I am Allergic to sugar substitutes. I can't wait until I can have cottage cheese, applesauce, and mashed potatoes. I am 12 days post op -

LadyKatie replied to laners777's topic in Food and Nutrition
