I am 1 month post op today. And I am literally grossed out by everything. Even when I think something is going to be delicious to eat (for example tuna) couple bites in I'm so over it and never want to see it again. I'm running out of food options during this soft food diet here [emoji31] It's actually very frustrating and I wanna cry. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi! I had my sleeve surgery in December (29th) currently I'm 63lbs down! How about yourself Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

I like to get a passion fruit tea, no sugar, substitute with Splenda, sugar free vanilla and a splash of heavy cream sooooo gooooodd Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you I appreciate it. And you're right everyone is different. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Tomorrow I will be 12 weeks post op gastric sleeve and I've only lost 40 lbs. I don't eat what I'm not supposed to, so I don't understand why I'm not loosing as fast. My appointment with Dr. is in April, and at the 2 week appointment he said I should be around 60lb loss by April. I will admit that exercising is my biggest struggle. I feel so frustrated [emoji24] Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

You are definitely right! I appreciate your kind words [emoji173] Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

You're right! I most likely wouldn't have lost the weight if I hadn't had surgery. Now that the weather is getting nicer I am going to start on afternoon walks. I wanted to join the gym close to my house but I hate contracts and you have to sign a 12 month one. May sound like an excuse but for someone who lives paycheck to paycheck it's a legit concern haha.

My doctor repaired a hiatial hernia while doing my sleeve. I didn't even know I had one! But I will say, I have not had heartburn once since surgery Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you I appreciate it! I have to remind myself everyone is different and losses different. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you! My pre op was 2 week liquid diet and I lost 14lbs. I'm trying something different this coming week so well see how it goes. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

I had sleeve surgery 12/29 so I am about 7 weeks post op. I have lost 30lbs since surgery date. I feel like I should be losing more, even the dietitian agreed. But so far I've been able to tolerate foods, I've never had dumping, I do need to get more protein and water in, but I feel good. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hello! I'm curious seeing as how super bowl is coming up, how many have tried eating hot queso at 6 weeks? What about wings with no skin?? What was everyone eating at 6 weeks post op? Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Don't knock the cauliflower crust until you try it. I am also very picky and was hesitant in trying it. I tried getting the frozen cheese cauliflower crust pizza from Walmart and shredded up some turkey deli meat and added a little more cheese. I was only able to eat about half a piece 4 weeks post op but it was good! Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

How is everyone doing?? I am 5 weeks post op today! Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Ok everyone I have questions!! My program requires me to take * Bariatric Multivitamin * Calcium Citrate * Vitamin B12 * Probiotic * Iron * Vitamin D Where does everyone buy their vitamins? Specifically the Multivitamin and Calcium?? Also, had anyone tried the Nectar fruity flavors? What do they taste like?? I read somewhere on here that they taste like juice rather than milky protein shakes. Can anyone confirm this?? I am so over milky chalky protein shakes. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

So my program said that I could drink the Isopure waters but my fluid intake and wouldn't count towards my protein goal. It seems that my program has alot of those kind of rules. For example I can only drink Whey Isolate protein shakes. I'm not able to eat anything spicy until 3 months to avoid ulcers. Just different things. I am really trying to heed their advice, but it is somewhat difficult in this learning phase. I am 5 weeks post op today. 1 more week t regular diet! Wooooo Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you all for your responses, I'm glad I have this information going forward. I just bought my multivitamin yesterday in a chewable, mainly because I have a hard time swallowing pills and even the chewable was HUGE. I also got the chewable probiotic. Still need to get the calcium chews. Now I'm really going to try the Nectar shakes, SO over the milky ones. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

So I experienced this 2 weeks ago and then it went away for a week, and now it's back. I'm trying to remember my stomach went through a huge surgery but omg it's hard. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

That happened to me too, and even now that I am on soft food diet. I find these recipes I wanna try and I get all jazzed up and make it, then a couple bites in I'm grossed out and never wanna see it again. It's slowly passing. I'm not sure the reason, but I know it's frustrated. Just keep in mind it gets easier. [emoji18] Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

You're right. I always have Dr. Now in the back of my head going "you could've easily lost 30 pounds this munth [emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hey ya'll! I had VSG on 12/29 and I'm 3 weeks post op. I am having a couple issues maybe some of you have experienced the same thing. First: I feel my weight loss is going very slow. My doctor said last week I'm doing good and am where I should be, but I thought I'd be losing more. (HW: 329, SW: 315, CW: 297) Second: I started soft foods last Tuesday and I have not pooped in over a week! I will say this...my protein and water intake is SHITTY and is no where it should be. Third: My program doesn't allow me to have salsa, avacado, tomato sauce, so it's bee hard to find things to eat. Any advice is appreciated! [emoji173] P.S- I miss wings, popcorn, and coke [emoji31] Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

I live in Texas and tomatoes are a staple in our Mexican household so it's been a little challenging. I am definitely getting closer to meeting my water goal each day Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

The dietitian said the reason no spicy or acidic foods are allowed in the vegetable is to prevent an ulcer from forming. I do drink the Gatorade zero and water but am never able to meet the 64oz goal. I bought some isopure protein powder that's supposed to make a fruity drink and i hated it, it's so sour! But I'm trying Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app

I guess looking at it that way you're right it is alot. They said I can't eat those things right now, I will be on soft foods for 6 weeks [emoji15] I just kind of want a hot meal, that's not fish [emoji28] but all in due time I suppose. Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app
