Suggestions on puréed foods
Vee16 replied to time4change2017's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I made Spanish Beans and puréed them. I also made steak in sauce and puréed that. It's soooooo good. I can eat about 3-5 tables spoons of each but not together. I'm 3 1/2 weeks post Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I was sleeved in 12/19 and was told last week that I could start the puréed phase which I was super excited about! However I think I'm doing it al wrong. I made meatloaf for the fam and smashed mine and ate mash potato with it. Next day I made grilled chicken that I put in my mini bullet with some fat free cheese and afresh sauce. But I feel like I'm eating stuff that I am not supposed to. Does anyone have any suggestions or recipes? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have no idea. I just know that I can have maybe 2-3 1/2 teaspoons of food before I start feeling pain.... I think I'm eating 2-3 times a day if that. I'm having such difficulty tryin to stay on track. The only thing I make sure I do have is at least one bottle of Protein shake. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

That sounds delish! I'm not a huge fan of sweets which is why I think I'm having such a problem.... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Day 4 Post op
Vee16 replied to Leslie Grasham Jacobs's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I felt the strong sensation of hunger on the 5th and 6th day then it was gone. I'm now 3 weeks post and have to remind myself to eat. I suggest drinking Water, tea, broth or shakes every 10 min. I mean have a sip all day. If that does t work try sugar free Popsicles and Jello Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I like premier Protein shakes. I order them on Amazon but I believe they are in costco and BJs. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
HELP! Freaking out - need honest feedback
Vee16 replied to minervaxx6's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I only used pain meds in the first day and that's because they gave it to me. The pain for me was completely bearable. The gas didn't hurt because I let it go the moment I felt it. I walked a few hrs after surgery because it took me a while to wake from anesthesia. The worse for me was the gagging. That hurt a lot. But again I didn't use pain meds. Everyone is different.

When did you guys go back to work?
Vee16 replied to cnewbodyreno's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought I would only take 3 weeks but seeing as I'm always dizzy and tired I decided to take another week or two. I hope to go back when I'm on solids. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I'm 8 days post op and starving! I drink almost 2 Protein shakes a day and about 1-2 Jello cups. If I'm desperate for salt I'll have a sip or two of some soup but I'm so not happy about feeling hungry! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
