  1. Can you ever have a taco again like with whole wheat soft tortillas? And I was wondering about whole wheat bread? How many carbs a day are people eating?

    Food questions

    Hi. I will begin my soft phase today. Let me first say that I focus on protein first and foremost. I was wondering if anyone can please tell me what carbs are allowed at this phase. Are you ever allowed soft tortillas for example? Also, I was wondering about meatloaf, since it is made with bread in it can't you eat it, or is there an alternative way to make it? And can you eat baked potatoes?

    Food questions

    It has a lot of different meats on it but didn't say anything about baked potatoes and I was just wondering.
  6. Just wondering at any point in anyone's sleeve journey did liquids or food feel "GOOD" going down?
  7. Hello. My surgeon is staring me on vitamins Tuesday. What do you guys recommended as far as name brands, easy to swallow, ease of purchase?? Calcium, B 12 and I forgot the other one.

    Coworker outed me

    I don't think it is deceptive by any means!!!! It's nobody's business what you had done. If anyone asks me personally I'm saying high protein and low carbs with exercise. It's not a lie.

  10. Soli3l, I had the sleeve and am having a very rough time with spasms, nausea, and a lot of pain when things go down.

    Bridal shower

    Hi I have a shower Sunday which Monday marks 2 weeks post op. Does anyone have any suggestions for me on soft foods I can eat there? Also, when, or is it ever safe to eat popcorn?

    I had no idea it would be this bad

    Yes I have talked to my surgeon. He said I may be healing slower than normal. Put my vitamins on hold for another week.
  15. I'm only 8 days out but am totally MISERABLE. I have spasms constantly. Deep stomach aches, nausea. Will anything ever feel comfortable going down again (food, drink)?? And how long will that be?? I can't take much more
  16. Soli3l you don't need to apologize. We are all here for the same reason. That's like the 6th rude response I've seen here from someone. I thought this was for support????
  17. Wow Babbs! That is a rude response!! Remember, we are all here for the same reason! I've posted the same topic 4 times, is that not allowed??
  18. How long after your surgery were you able to eat cottage cheese?
  19. I'm not talking a year out. I want to know how long it took to eat comfortably. Like 2 weeks, one month?

    Return to work. ..

    I took 6 weeks off. I have very low tolerance for pain and do not bounce back easily after surgery
  21. Hi all. I'm 5 days post op from my sleeve and never ever thought I'd have this much pain and issues with this!! I am getting deep aches and horrible belly aches and spasms. Jello, cream of wheat, is painful for me to get down. Please tell me this gets better. How long until your healed completely?
  22. Oh I respect it. But it's just extremely difficult right now trying to handle these spasms. I'm just praying for a little comfort is all :-(
