Is oatmeal purée?

I had my sleeve 10/8. I am having nothing but regrets. All I think about is food. I'm so depressed. I don't think going to a psychiatrist will help this as I have done it before and it didn't. I didn't think it would nearly be this hard as I was told a hormone gets removed that produces the need for hunger and cravings. We'll guess what, I am always hungry and am always craving bread, pasta, and pizza. I used to go out to eat all the time also and it's killing me not. I know someone a year out and she eats whatever she wants in moderation and is still losing. I don't know if I will get to this point. I just want real food. I haven't even got to purée yet. I am so depressed and need major help.

You look awesome!!

What diet do you have to be on to eat these??

Can u eat on soft diet?

Yes, a radio graphic image of your stomach where you drink some NASTY liquid, that made me vomit btw! and make sure it goes down your esophagus and into your stomach correctly with none coming out of the sutures from your stomach.

Fenway I feel for you. I was there. It does get better, every day. But I'm still having a really tough time. But I'm starting to believe in what others have said.

When were you told that it is safe to take pills, tablets not capsules? My advisor is on vaca and I need ibuprofen bad...

No one mentioned cranberry sauce or black olives which are my fave!!!

Is ibuprofen known to make people hungry???

I just started my puree foods on Monday. I have no idea how often, or how much you are supposed to eat. I feel like I could eat half a cup every three hours. That is probably way too much. What was everyone told? I have not been given very good guidance through this.

Thank you princess that seems way more reasonable!

Don't really know what to say except you should think of your priorities. Worrying about beer and drinking tons of it would not be one at the top of my list. I am also college aged and know all about parties. If ppl ask why your not drinking or judging you, tell them to screw off. It's not worth it being stupid.

Tylenol doesn't work on menstrual cramps for me. Only ibuprofen, and my cramps are so bad I vomit and am sick all day in bed with a heating pad like today since I haven't had any ibuprofen. And that's not good either.

I just don't want to push it and eat more. It says on my paper eat 1/8 cup of food. But I can eat like 1/2 without feeling anything

I need help. I am 3 1/2 weeks postop, and I never get the full feeling when I eat. I do get a feeling of pain between my shoulder blades after about six or so bites. Is that the full feeling??

Yes, about 70

Honestly, I never had them. They made me sick every time I tried and I tried every different brand and flavor. I'm not dead and I'm 3 weeks post op. My CRNP knew this also.

I am dying for a Bacon Egg and Cheese bagel from mcdonalds. Also, a trip to Golden Corral buffet? Can I please do this in time???

I know I'm craving it, but in reality I know it would make me sick. Every thing I loved, like applesauce and eggs taste like junk to me so I'm sure it would be the same. I had a scrambled egg and didn't like it. The only thing I've liked so far is the egg drop soup that my boyfriend says looks like "snot" Ahole, it's about the only thing I can tolerate haha. I'm thinking of puréeing some cheese and chicken when it thaws. These cravings are just my brain of my old life which is why I post and need the comments because it makes me feel better!

I hope it gets easier, I did look at cal coNtent since I've been craving and I figure if it takes a whole day to eat it, I would still be under...

Can you have this on soft foods? Or which stage of diet?

I'm 3 weeks post and starving also. Been eating purée and get full on nothing, I don't know what to think of this either. Any help would do..

Wow!!!!

I was told 6 weeks
