Sleeved 11/7, Question?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!! Love this app! I was sleeved on 11/7 so almost two weeks out. I'm on the puréed diet and was curious about Protein. The thought of puréed meat sounds so unappealing. Did you all mainly get your protein from yogurt at this point or did you find other ways? And if so, do you mind sharing these tips with this newbie? Thanks for any help!!!

Congrats and during the puréed stage I got most of my Protein from shakes. I am 9 weeks out and I still get the majority of my protein from the shakes

I found some tinned salmon with cracked pepper, pureed it and mixed in a tiny little bit of mayo and milk. That worked ok. Today I did the same but added part of a (mashed) soft boiled egg.

I haven't checked out the recipes section yet, but I will soon so that I don't get bored.

I had my sleeve on the 12th and can only have full Protein liquids for 3 weeks. Eating protein Soups, add protein cocoa to my Decaf coffee, and tried fat free, sugar free puddings with protein added to it. Have had some problem with the thickness of the pudding, or I ate it too fast. Otherwise, one week out and doing well!!

If you can tolerate it, don't forget to use unflavored Protein Powder. I swear I lived off hot cocoa with nectar unflavored powder for my first two weeks.

I lived on yogurt and scrambled eggs. Also, canned tuna crumbled very fine with mayo. There was no way I could stomach pureed meat. Bleck!

I found a milk that has 12 grams of Protein ( HEB store brand) and I eat greek yogurt with only one shake a day. pureed meat or Beans for lunch and dinner. I get about 60-70 grams of protein a day. I pureed chicken with green enchilada sauce last night. It was really good! I've only tried chicken so far.

      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
