What have you ate since starting regular foods?

I have tried a few things: chicken kabobs, brisket nachos, ham and cheese pinwheels (I removed most of the tortilla), beef stew, baked potato, chicken salad, and a couple prepared melas from My Fit Foods. My tummy seems to handle everything ok, but of course I can't eat very much of any of it. I may get 4-5 bites in, then I am done. The only food that really bothers me are breads. They feel like bricks in my stomach, so I stay away from those. Are you eating solids now?

Today is my official 1 month surgiversary! Down 36.6 lbs. I was stalled for a bit, lost 2lbs, stalled a bit again, then I upped my Water intake and I dropped another half pound. Today I start swimming, my incisions are no longer scabbed so I'm hitting the pool today with the kids! So excited. I've been waiting to go with them :)

As much as I want to be upset about "only losing 36lbs in a month" I can't be... Nearly 40lbs?! I'm please. I can't wait to see where I am next month! Hope everyone is doing well, I love reading everyone's progress!

      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.
