That seems like a long time. Are you on full liquids? I had eggs day 9. Started puréed day 14 and I start soft foods on the 9th even though I've had some already per the nutritionist.

The diet im on sucks! Seems like I have alot more restrictions than everyone else..i want meat..lol!

I am still on full liquids! My doc won't move me until I get in the required amount of Protein.

I was sleeved Wed.' date=' March 6 . . .please make sure it is what you want to do[/quote']

Lol. I was feeling the same way and was really regretting surgery. They didn't tell us the true story of taste buds changing. I couldn't even drink Water. I am now two weeks into surgery and feeling a bit better but what a tough road trying to get Protein and fluids in

How are you feeling?

[ARenee99 12]

It has been FOUR weeks everyone! Congrats and I hope everyone is doing well

Yes.. on to soft foods. Not a big step up from puree but I'm so excited! Has anyone had a weight loss stall?. A friend of me is a year out and told me it happens all throughout the progress, but I feel it's too early. Maybe I'm just impatient...

I had a slow down in week three (lost 1 lb) but broke through and this last week, the fourth week, lost 6.6! I'm down 33 now.

I'm eating lots of different things and my sleeve really hasn't rejected anything (well, it didn't love mashed potatoes but that was it). I have to really really concentrate on eating slowly. That's the hardest for me especially eating w/ my toddler when it's more about just getting done before she wants to get down and play. I was on purees in the Hospital - which sounds a lot different than people here - and now I'm on more solid food. I had an ounce of a turkey burger for lunch today.

I had a stall for about two weeks and last week I lost 3lbs so I'm hoping the stall is over for now...

Just wondering what my fellow sleeves are doing for exercise at this point? I'm walking 30mins a day. I wanted to start doing some weight lifting but was told to wait until 2months out by my dr. Kinda getting bored with walking

Just walking right now myself. Was told the same thing about waiting 2 months. Maybe taking different routes will help.
