Congrats on starting your new life! I think having targets or those bottles with ML writings will help! Like finish 1 litre at work ane the 2nd litre at home!
Also maybe try diluting the protien shakes?

Did u speak to ur doc? Does it hurt?

Not at all. I just can't sleep! But I did sleep well yesterday yay. My husband says becauae my body is hungry? Ahh I guess I am just getting to know my body from zero. I need to get nack to my walks. I think it will help for sure

Hi Ladies,
quick question, is everyone sleeping ok? I havent been sleeping well at all and i read that its normal? like my eyes is wide open and when i wake up during the night, its like i wasnt asleep at all.

I had my bypass surgery yesterday and yes the sips are annoying but I can them one after the other so it's okay. I'm so sore and annoyed and I just want to sleep on my side by it's so painful. I made a homemade chicken broth and it's tasteless. Recipe of your delicious one please?

Happy puree stage! It's so much nicer hahaha. I also over bought stuff but they are still surviving in my fridge. I wish I could advice u on the qty but I also read that 1/2 cup is right for now. If u guys read arabic, I would've shown what mine said and we would have a pretty good laugh as it basically says nothing informative teehee but I am surviving and losing the weight!! I wanna fast forward to 6 months

Proud of u!!! U going back after the rain stopped shows the new you! I know u can do it and if u miss one, doesn't mean it's game over.. u just go the next day!! U go girl! I think buying one pair or leggings is okay just for comfort but yes make sure it doesn't irritate your incisions!

I haven't walked for a few days but I've had a few bad nights of spending them in the toilet ahh. I can't wait to understand my stomach again but I was super energetic and cleaned 2 bathrooms so yay me!

Almost 3 months post-op, and this is my face!
March 2024, 20 stone 1lbs (281lbs)

Literally just took this photo! Around 16 stone 7lbs (231 lbs)

Don't be in a hurry and do it slowly and see how you feel day by day! I feel soft food is not far off pureed. Just less blending teehee. I wish we had in person meetings, that sounds nice and healthy!

Hi hi okay so regarding the protien shakes yes like below 200 cals less than 2g sugar
And as for food qty or drink qty, my doctor said that to eat as tolerated which obviously won't be too much but this month till my app is like a testing month.. so if I can eat 2 eggs then I should go ahead but of course I should watch out for cues of fullness to avoid vomiting. I understood what she needs from me till I c her mid September so I'll follow the file they gave me and explore. I have started pureed stage slowly and I've been doing well especially my 1 egg every morning so yay.. anxiety has reduced!

How r u doing!

Fantastic! As I said before, I really wouldn't focus so much on calories as long as your sugar and fat intake remain on the lower end and your Protein is between 40-60g/day for a female, aiming for 60g but not overeating to achieve it. I know my surgeon told me the #1 goal is to go slowly, space out meals with the no drinking 30 mins before and after, and to stop eating as soon as you begin feeling even a little full with goal during this stage probably being less than 4-6oz/meal between food and any broth/shake/etc, and that sometimes you'll feel full and content at less and that's ok.

Hi hi x
The protien powder and premade are all approved. Low cals and less than 2g of sugar so that's good and also my protien soy milk is less than 2g sugar so it fits the criteria and since inputting all that I eat n drink on MFP, I am mindful but alil more guidance would be appreciated. On Sunday (first day of the week here) I'll try to get in touch and demand some attention from either surgical team or anyone!

I spoke to one before I was discharged and she told me the most basic stuff
1 week clear fluids
1 week fuller fluids
4 weeks purees
Then some examples of food to have during each stage.
Qtys are like cup wise but no mention of calories anywhere.
I am currently on full liquids so I'd have a protien shake premade or powder using almond milk or normal milk + frozen Berries
Greek yogurt low fat non flavored
And I made a oat and chicken chicken Soup which I blended and I have q cup of it a day.
I did call the dietitian today and she said just eat healthy and I am eating right
No mention of calories 😭😭😭 I am literally fetching info on this website or tiktok and just going eith it with the knowledge I got.

Hi 👋 aww so sweet of u to follow up! Yes today is day 8 and I'm on fuller liquids but I feel so lost 😢 I literally have no communication with the any of the team in the hospital.. I have so many questions and I don't even know who to contact 🙃 I had a panic attack yesterday because I felt like I've actually consuming quite the calories..so I was wondering if that's OK since we are still in the liquid phases? By quite the calories, I mean less thank 1k a day. I really don't know what to do or expect. I will Try to ring the hospital today for some more insight.

Hope you do better with your protien intake! It's all learning from here!
