I am 13 days out and I am on soft food, puréed. I can drink just fine but eating eggs and cheese just makes my stomach hurt. Everything else seems to be ok.

Thanks SharonTX. Sounds great.

Went for my two week check today. I have lost 10 lbs since surgery. My wounds are healing nicely so I can take a bath. Yea! I have moved on to stage 3 and can have puréed food. I am a vegetarian so my protein choices are limited. Any suggestions?

Me too. I am not sure when I will move to the next level of food. I have been really tired lately. I hope this goes away soon. -

My surgery was at 8:30 am June 17, 2015. It all went smoothly. Even afterwards, I have been walking a lot. Sleeping has been difficult. -

I go to kaiser Richmond. I have gone through the process and have received my surgery date of June 17. I had no problem with the diet and walking but actually working out has been difficult. -

Should I have the Gastric Sleeve or Gastric ByPass?
Anita Kaddoura posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am trying to figure out whether to have the Gastric Sleeve or By Pass. I am 60 years old and want to use the one more suited for someone my age. -
The videos and advice has helped a lot. I have been trying to decide which surgery to have bypass or sleeve. I have done my research but nothing has told me how the patients feel about their surgery. I have already started the process, but this is the most important decision I have yet to make. I am 5'4" and my highest weight was 241 lbs, this was in January 2015. I have been on the pre-op diet since February 2 and now weigh 220 lbs. I lose weight till I hit a plateau and then I gain it all back and more. This is why I have decided to have surgery. I need to change my life or I will lose it. ; (

i love my Fitbit flex. It does keep you motivated and tracks everything. Well only exercises associated with steps. I am in the pre-op stage. My surgery is not till June. I wanted to try the pre-op diet for a while and use a time where I wouldn't miss much work.

So frustrated! Not covered 100%
Anita Kaddoura replied to Shan5311's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I freaked when I went to orientation and the woman next to talked about how much she had to pay. Same insurance company but different plans. I called and found it is covered on my plan, no deductible. I started February 2 but asked for surgery in June. I hope they can accommodate this.
