On my diet I start puréed foods on week 2

Cute!!! Your so tiny!

Angie I would not move to puréed until your doc says. You can try sugar free pudding, that was easy for me. Also Dannon Light an Fit Greek Yogurt in Coconut Vanilla saved me.

????

One more question, were you able to eat the 1 can of tuna? Lol!! Were sleeve sisters! Hell no I couldn't eat the whole can! I had tuna for three days!

Caffeine is also an an appetite inhibitor

I stretched it in my sleep last night and it HURT

My large incision has been annoying the hell out of me. Not the actual incision but like the muscles/tissue around it! I get this burning stabbing feeling of I move a certain way and last night I woke up and I guess had done something in my sleep it did not like and was having stabbing pain around the incision site. It goes away eventually but the skin is numb and tingly and the pain seems like it's in the muscle. Anyone else have this problem? Also how long did your steri strips or band aids stay on? I would also like to compare battle scars if your brave enough. Lol!!

Ooh ya know what else? I love banana pudding so I made some sugar free nana puddin with almond milk. (It did not set, apparently you need real milk) son instead of tossing it out I added 2 scoops of chocolate protein powder, whisked it up and poured them into popcycle thingys, freeze and I have Protien Choco Banana Pudding Pops! YUM!!!!!!

YES I had scrambled egg! I just kept it really wet and scrambled it. It was HEAVEN!!

I feel hunger.... But I full up fast

Puréed tuna with a tsp of mayo, salt and pepper. REALLY GOOD actually! Tuna Pate!

I right along with you I am at 16 lbs and eating puréed foods or baby food I was also told I can have tuna or chicken in a can great job This is gonna sound stupid but they said I can have legumes, that's Beans right? Lol!

Yeah it's hard getting all that protein in!!! I can't do it. I mean I could but it takes me a long time just to drink one of my shakes. But I puréed some tuna yesterday so I'm getting. Natural protein in at least. I probly average around 30-40 grams a day

My doctor don't want me to start until next Saturday! How many pounds have you lost, if you don't mind me asking? Wow next Saturday?! That's long! He must have his reasons. From my surgery date I have lost 14 lbs

Yep I was sleeved May 7th! When can you start puréed foods?

How many days r u out, I'm 10 days out, and I'm so tired so soup! I am 10 days out but my diet beginning week 2 is purée

Bandaid back in place! Thanks girl!

The Gasx strips did not do anything for me. I can eat pretty much anything at this point. (That's purée approved) I just blended some peaches and put a dollap ontop of a heaping tablespoon of cottage cheese. I'm making homemade refried Beans for dinner!

Thanks! That eases my mind. When I look at the incision it makes me faint! Hahaha!

I'd like to know the answer too!

Cannot even believe it's already been 10 days!! I was so freaked out about doing this and had so many buddies back out at the last minute and I just kept telling myself, I CAN DO THIS! I DESERVE THIS! I will tell you that I had problems waking up from surgery. I was not taking deep enough breaths to get enough oxygen. I got combative with nurses and it took 3 people to restrain me. (Don't remember any of this) I was up and walking 2 hours after I got into my room. I had manageable pain, and little problems drinking fluids. My biggest complaint was the large incision pain and the gas. I felt like my ribs were cracked or something. The tissue surrounding that area is still sore. After I got home I slept in my recliner for 3 nights cause my induction pain was too irritating. It was hard and still is hard to get all fluids and Protein in. I started puréed foods yesterday and had no issues. I had a soft scrambled egg and it was amazing! I had puréed tuna with mayo today and it was divine. I do have what feels like gas resistance. when food hits my stomach. It's like pain, grumbling and gurgling. I was told it's just gas resistance and to take my daily acid pill and it will get better. All in all it's been pretty amazing! I feel really good I look good and I'm down 21 lbs in 3 weeks!! I hope this good experience continues. Just thought I would share.

Well if your on full liquids you should handle protein shakes, pudding and yogurt fine. Are you on any Prilosec or any acid pills? Those help the discomfort of food hitting your stomach.

What did your doctor tell you to do?
