I was very excited and nervous, about getting my sleeve survey in august, and 5 months and 55 pounds lighter I can honestly say it has changed my overall health and perspective on many aspects of my mind and body. It is definitely a lifestyle change but if your dedicated to yourself and making the necessary changes it is a life changer! I rarely ever posted a "full body" pic because I was ashamed of what I saw but I finally feel now I'm ready! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So this maybe too much info but I'm in the purée stage I have stuck strictly to the diet to prevent irrational to my new stomach today I had a few bites of cottage cheese and mashed potatoes thinking I would be ok from this boy, was I wrong complete opposite! Diaherria almost immediately! Has anyone else had this? I'm thinking it maybe cause I'm introducing new foods? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have been cleared to start phase 2 of the purée diet!! Yeah! I had made a turkey ricotta that was one of the recipes ate very slow and it actually was not bad! It's purée 4 oz of ground turkey, low fat ricotta, and low fat milk. I wanted to share, this has been difficult not so much the eating, but getting use to eating foods like this. It's out of the norm for me. But I have lost 12 pds in 2 weeks since the surgery and on my way to my goal! We all have to keep going and look at this temporary changes, but they are tools to make permanent adjustments in our lifestyles. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Have u tried taking any chewable multi Vitamins and also have u tried clear broths with low sodium? Just some suggestions that is easy for your body to digest, you maybe feeling so nausea because your body is weak, and needs to refuel with nutrition like a Multivitamin and low acidic foods that are easy on the stomach.
