There is some concern that the seeds can get caught in your suture line.

You'll be okay. I totally didn't think about it and did the same thing and then was sure there were seeds in there. You will be just fine. Its wise that you continue to be super careful about your food choices.

Nutella is the devil!!

OK, it's really absolutely heavenly... ever had those amazing Belgian seashell-shaped chocolates? It's like the inside of those, this wonderful rich chocolately, nutty creamy delightful stuff. I bought it once, and once only -- before surgery -- and won't buy it again because I never actually put it ON anything... I ate the whole damn thing, spoonful by spoonful!

Anyway, I was allowed to blend strawberries into my shakes right off the bat.

Nutella is amazing!! It was a staple with bread for Breakfast or Snacks when I was in Africa.

I wanted to buy some the other day but it isn't post sleeve friendly : ( Maybe in the maintenance stage :redface1:

Yeah my 4yr old granddaughter loves the nutella and strawberries and it looked so good I ate ONE and then got scared, I sent it home with them because I could seriously eat it by itself.lol:001_smile:

My surgeon suggested strawberries in my shakes, as well as blueberries, or Water packed peach slices. They are not going to hurt you near as much as the Nutella.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
