@@tera1982 - once you pass the liquid or pureed stages you can still eat with your family. just smarter/differently like hamburgers...no bun. pizza? thin crust, small slice. spaghetti? veggie pasta/wheat Pasta. tacos? no shell. this is a tool (sleeve) you can make it work or not use it. this is a way of life now, food is not what you think it was before. it's for nourishment. eat smart. quality food, not quantity. you got this:D

@@ocsergio I eat out a lot. it can be done you just learn to share entrees, eat appetizers or choose from kids menu. hubby has lost about 20 pounds since surgery. we eat a lot less and healthier!
-
@@ocsergio - in a week you could have some scrambled eggs with cheese. that was my first real food...eat them still on the weekends. hubby likes to eat out a lot so I get them and a cup of coffee. once in a while I will eat half of his small country sausage. hang in there, the pureed diet will be here soon:)

@@emhegs78 - stay on track like you have been. great job! it will get easier.
-
@@ocsergio - well....you won't like my response. sorry. you know the answer already. do what the doctor ordered. you could take a Protein shake and enjoy the company. Maybe some can give you an alternative answer. I was on pureed by day three. sorry IMHO you need to follow the diet you were given while healing.

@@Meganfpc - my stomach has quieted a bit but at times it is loud. I am almost 7 months post. Keep hydrated. keep moving...this will seem like a dream in a couple of weeks. I was lucky. I really had no post-op issues. once you can eat pureed food you will feel different.

@@Meganfpc probably now you can drink crystal light. keep moving, it will get better. @@emhegs78 how are you doing? welcome little sisters!

@@ocsergio - stage one? need to clarify, everyone has a different plan. post-op? liquid or puree phase?
