Just Started Mushies And I Have ?



Recommended Posts

I am sure this is a something that happens in the beginning but I just need a bit of reassurance. I just started full mushies and I am pretty much sticking to scrambled eggs, soft canned corned beef with over easy egg yolk only etc.. I am getting this feeling like I either need to burp or vomit. It has happened 3 times in a row now but I have not burped or vomited. Again, I am sure this is common but I would like for it to stop if I can make it so. Any advise or tips would be so appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Yes, it is common. I actually do burb and that's my signal to stop eating. Everyone has a different signal. But, I would also mention that some people have trouble with eggs. You might try eating some canned chili ground up (good processor or blender) or refried Beans. They are both high in Protein. Other things that I did successfully during the mushy stage was to blend canned Soups and maybe add some different spices to make them taste better. Mix it up a little so you don't get bored with the eggs.

Thanks for the tip, I did not know that I could have a chili, I love chili.

That feeling of needing to burp is my signal that I'm close to over-full, with nausea next if I take one more bite. My wife bought me a bunch of the 3-oz paper bathroom cups for measuring my meals. One cup is my limit, and until I learn to police myself better on speed and food volume, the cups are sparing me the grief of the technicolor yawn.

When I get that feeling its from eating too quickly or not chewing well. I've been focusing on eating more slowly this past week and have not had that feeling.

This happens to me as well. Usually the first few bites results in my belching once or twice and then I'm good with the rest. :)

I just started mushies today. Tomorrow I'm going to try an egg. I found a recipe for a scrambled egg, add one laughing cow cheese, one tsp. milk mix well break up the cheese as best you can. Cook the egg. This makes the egg creamy, I'm thinking this will help it go down easier for us. I hope so, I love scrambled eggs. :)

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
