Hooray for the mush!
BrianSATX replied to ladylaura's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No purée here. Doc and NUT said you're more likely to get more food in because it takes the air out with purée foods, and besides who likes mush, so they skip that phase. -

I was lucky on this front. They only woke me at 3am and moved vitals to the same time as blood draw while I was in there so I could sleep! My hospital was great!

Congrats! I was sleeved same day, feeling what to me is hunger, but I don't know if it is. Just today got off Clear liquids, and tolerating more than 64 oz of Water and had 4oz of cottage cheese for lunch (first meal) and 5.3 oz of Greek yogurt for dinner. Tomorrow will be the first test with 3 meals for the day. Oh, and have lost 14.6 since surgery. -

BrianSATX replied to Paradise Mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine was clear liquids til my first followup. Tomorrow is that first followup. I can't stomach the broth anymore so it's all about Popsicles and Jello. Mine also was no Protein focus, don't add any, the protein starts after the first post op appointment. -
Jacked up body image....and NSV?
BrianSATX replied to Nicolanz's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I lost well over 200 lbs 6 or 7 yrs ago, and the reason I gained it back was body image issues. This time I will not do it again. Oh, I'll have body image issues and see myself over 400 lbs again just like I did then, but I've already got a list of counselors that I requested who are familiar with bariatric issues, because I know it will happen again. This time I'm being proactive about it. -
Approved! Now terrified!
BrianSATX replied to jennlhp's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just so you don't think it's just one for the ladies, I told one of my friends who said I was crazy too and that I look fine and shouldn't do this. My response was "the ball is rolling and I'm just needing support, not criticism." It took a couple of weeks and now my friend is being supportive. -
