Anyone heard from Grandma2tweeties? Hope she's well..

Hi Amy and Carol thanks for the feedback .. same I was super hungry today n had small meals but I have to be mindful because it all adds up. Amy your allowed to feel the way you do and it's great your taking little steps...

hi everyone i hope all is going well? Is anyone starting to experience acid reflux? I ve never had this in my life and now experiencing a discomfort at times after i eat.

Glad your feeling better carol. Yes testing times on what our stomachs can handle. My nutritionist always say keep chewing and eat slowly. Yet I have not mastered this kill very well.

That's awesome progress glad everyone is doing great. I never knew tge staples come out?. I still check in here.

Hi Amy sounds like your doing great. Same here lost 6kg so far on soft food .. It's amazing how I quickly learn my stomach is full unlike before..i still have a bit of.pain on my right side below the stomach area..

Hi everyone, Being a newbie i was hoping if anyone can suggest some yummy puree recipes for Christmas and New Years. Currently I am 2nd week into post op and on puree foods. It would be great to know what others did to keep themselves on track during this festive season.

Sorry Mary I don't know any good processors have been using crock pots gor soups and hand blender

Yum thank you Kymmuej for sharing. Happy holidays to you.

Hi Amy, Sorry to hear the passing of your mother, sadly we go through seasons of life but it will pass in time. However I admire your spirit that you will try again tomorrow. You can do this!

I don't know if it will work on my 4th day off post op. And doing everything right but I feel so weak n low in energy. The only way I was able to get fluids down is to stand and sip. The gas pains weren't as bad.

Yes i have that pain on the right, it hurts when sitting down so I try to walk it off has helped.

Great Transformation

Where do I get gas stripps

Keep going Mel think long term and the reason that is going to motivate you

Hi Chris same at home and walking. It's really hard having a one year old who's clinging. Thank goodness for grandparents who are helping out. When I saw my little man I broke down in tears because this one reason for me to go through the gastric sleeve procedure. I m taking the meds buts difficult to swallow having to time it right cause it can be painful.

Thinking of you Grandma 2 tweeting. You will be great we are all behind you !

Hi everyone day two and surgery went well. Doing my water shots at the moment it's an amazing feeling to feel full so quickly. Thankful for humble beginnings and the people who I have meet on this new journey.

Good luck for those who are having surgery. Mine is at mid day I'm trying to stay calm lol.

Good luck blessed

Wow well done and thank you for sharing and motivating others like myself who is finding the pre op diet very difficult to maintain.

Hi everyone just an update, i had to contact the nutritionist to advise that I am not doing so great on the pre op diet and i wont be loosing 8kgs by the end of the week. Am waiting to hear back either tomorrow the surgeon was clear if i didnt reach the 8kg mark he will be cancelling the surgery. Over the last month before the pre op diet and seeing the surgeon i have lost a total of 14kgs, I am feeling annoyed and grumpy knowing the journey has been positive but slow.

Yes i have because I was low I'm energy. But the weight loss is slower. Being on the pre op it will allow you to loose 4 kgs a week

Thank you for the encouragement I need to stay focus ..
