    Breakfast question

    Nope never. Sleeved 1-19. You could probably tolerate oatmeal and cream of wheat much better. I always have a protein shake for breakfast followed by a mid morning yogurt if I get hungry. Pancakes ansD waffles will sit on your tummy like a lead brick!
  4. I love them! I use the b-12 nasal and the dissolving multi and calcium! ????

    Bruising Post Surgery

    Yep 1 giant bruise. Surgeon said it was the site where the stomache was removed.
  6. Take care and feel better soon. Sounds like nasty bacteria is getting you down. Protein shakes and fluids. Go back to basics and make yourself sip sip sip

    Is this pain normal?

    Totally normal. I had the same thing
  8. Ice tried the bariatric advantage chews but prefer Bariactive tablets that dissolve. Much better imo.
  9. I'm 6 weeks post op and just tried Chike coffee protein powder last week. Blend it with ice and ff milk. Just like a frappé oh my goodness! 20 grams of protein. It does have caffeine though. My sleeve Is totally ok with it! I have 1 every other day for my morning protein. I love it!
  10. I ordered mine from Chike.com. You can also get sample packs up try first. It's very good. But does have caffeine.
  11. Ok so I've stayed away from coffee even though my surgeon allows it. Just didn't taste the same as pre-surgery. Ordered the Chike coffee after a recommendation and made an iced coffee this morning and oh my goodness -yummy ????. I've been using Unjury and Jay Robb protein powder. This is very yummy too!
  12. No soda or carbonation. I dont plan on going back at all. No more diet coke for me!!!

    Time off post op

    2 weeks and I have a desk job.
  14. I was 4 weeks out on Monday the 16th. Because I was lucky enough to not have any nausea or vomitting post-op, my surgeon moved me to soft/mushy foods 2 weeks out. This week I can try "normal foods." However, I'm kind of staying the same. I usually ave 1-2 Protein shakes a day depending on my protein intake. eggs still don't go down too well. I can do tuna, shredded pork, chicken, shrimp. I do lots of cottage cheese, yogurt, cheese sticks, babybell cheese, etc. Shredded lunch meat. I've only tried soft cooked vegetables like carrots and green Beans in soup/stew. Oyster crackers in soup do Ok, just for adding a little salt. Applesauce and soft fruits in their own juice. Blueberries are Ok. I do SF popsicles occasionally and have had 1 SF healthy choice fudge pop. That's about it. I can do cream of wheat and oatmeal, however they make me crave so I think it's too many carbs for me to have.
