You are just like me. I had no issues. Thank your lucky stars. I'm now down over 100 pounds 1 year out! Just keep your liquids going. -

What was your favorite thing to eat in the "pureed" stage?
awold0 replied to GingerSlim's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mushroom soup. Cottage cheese. Tuna with light mayo. Egg in microwave with sprinkled cheese. Soft soy Beans mashed with fork. I stayed away from refried beans made me feel icky and way to full. Egg Drop soup was a staple too. -
8 months post op before and after

Wow you look great! Looks like over 100 pounds lost! -
Is 1.5 puree/ mash potatoes to much ?
awold0 replied to Girly24's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Talk to doc but when I did mash potatoes that early out I would be sick. Do like canned tuna with light mayo and quarter of a cup. Maybe mashed sweet potatoes and quarter of cup. Many carbs in a cup and a half of potatoes. Just my opinion. Check with doc and nutritionist. -
I'm one year out and almost to goal. Lost it starting around 5 months to 8 months. A tun would come out during shower. Now at one year it stopped at 9 months and coming back 10 fold! Don't stress it comes back!

I was right at 7 months too when I had to have mine out. Rapid weight loss in some people causes irt. It was easy out same day. Bummer to have to go back in to surgery but was easy. No issues at all after loosing it.

I am so mad right now! surgery postponed!
awold0 replied to JadedMage's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sleep apnea is very common with over weight people. Yes I had it and now I dont after losing 100 plus pounds. Don't be upset they just want you to be healthy. They want to do the sleep study so if it is severe you have the cap machine at home to make sure you don't stop breathing and die. Sleep apnea is serious and if you have it it must be addressed. They should have done this upfront! So now they will do sleep study to see how severe it is etc. It is a good thing. You need to see what level you are. The good news is when you loose weight it will get better. I only know of one lady that after loosing she still needs the machine. Hang in there it is in the best interest for you. I wish you the best.
