    Awesome!

    Awesome!!! I'm 6 weeks today also down 30lbs total 50 lbs my clothes don't fit me. Love it!!
  2. Sleeved 8/17/15 I had the same thing. Room temp. Water worked best small sips try to add a splash of liquid crystal light grape. For some reason only the grape flavor I could tolerate. It does get better!!! Try not to stress about it. Get a pill crusher add it to a little water and take your pill that way. Good luck
  3. Walking and when laying down lay to your left side it helps move air around in your colon. Small sips. Really cold things at first made my tummy turn. Water at room temp. Broth was also good. Good luck it does get better.

    Frothing

    I experience frothing today for the first time. Took a bite of cottage cheese and quickly another bite didn't chew well!!! It was the worse thing I every experienced. Thought I was going to have to call 911. It took over 40 min. To pass now anything I drink or try to eat feels like it's going to happen again. Or it's just in my head. Was sleeved on 8/17/15 anyone have this happen??

    Nauseous

    Been getting my water and protein in. I ate my Greek for dinner last night it was late. was on the go yesterday. Then had the new lactose free milk before bed. Maybe to heavy for my tummy.

    Calories and being discouraged

    No energy!

    I'm 3 1/2 weeks I feel the same way. I thought when I started the purée stage I would be getting some energy back but haven't yet. I have a headache that never goes away. I get my water and protein in each day. I go back to work on Monday.

    PURÉED FOOD ..?

    I'm also on this stage I'm desperate!! Living on triple zero Greek, chicken chili I made, re fried beans, squash, can't tolerate any dairy of any kind anymore!!!! I made a turkey dinner last night may I add in 98 degrees weather lol. I put turkey in the blender with some homemade gravy it was delicious. 1 tbsp of mashed and squash felt like thanksgiving. I don't know what it is about scrambled eggs but when I swallow them the kind of hurts. Anyone have issue with certain foods on the stage??? Any recipe ideas would be greatly appreciated thank you!

    Itching

    Hi same thing happened to me. Doctor looked at mine said it was an allergic reaction to the glue on the tape. My sleeve was 8/17/15 he told me to use hydrocortisone Benadryl cream. Soak in warm bath.
  18. Hello, My sleeve was 8/17/15 I also had the same thing. Try going slower and use your 1 oz cups if they gave you those. I had to stop my shakes with milk it made me sick. I can no longer tolerate lactose. Bummer I love dairy and found some great meal ideas. Concentrate on getting your fluid intake daily. Try water in your shake and get unflavored protein powder to add it. I'm very weak last few days and can't go outside its been very hot and it makes me dizzy. Good luck
