I was sleeved march 22. Exactly 1 week ago to the hour. Let me say the first 72 hours SUCKED! Now that im a little farther out I am feeling better. I have had trouble getting all my liquids and Protein in but I have found a trick that works for me. Snow cone maker and the bullet Proteins. It really does taste like a treat to me. Good luck....it will be well worth it.

Today is the day that I start up on Purees!

Taking is sloooow, with 2 very soft scrambled eggs for mini-meal 1 (chewed it a lot too). They went down slow and smooth, but I finished them all. I'm still trying to get an understanding of what "full" or "satisfied" feels like.

What are the other March 20th-ers doing for pured food and mini-meals?

Hmm. My doc still has me on liquids for another week. You were cleared for puréed one week out? Anyone else?

I was sleeved on 3/19. I am on pureed now. I had trouble with the shakes, gag me, so now most of my Protein comes from foods. I actually had a ground up burger for dinner yesterday. Added some mustard and low fat blue cheese. So yummy!!

My liver function is up but they are seeing if its cause i lost so much blood during surgery my levels had dropped so bad was close to needing blood transfusion And now my blood level is 1 away from normal so that's coming back so blood draw again Monday and see Dr as planned Monday...

[Nicole 2013 44]

[AndreB2S 1]

Yup - Liquids for one week, followed by puree's for 2 weeks - just had .5 can of pureed tuna - and it was good! Anyone have good puree recipes?

3/20 sleeve here as well. Doing fine. Protein shakes/shots (what a fab idea with the sno cone thing!), couple of tablespoons of yogurt or chicken salad. Of course sf pudding, popsicles, Jello. And my saving grace - broth. I hated that Swanson stuff in a box - blech. So I use Wegmans Spicy Thai Broth mixed half and half with broth packets - and yes, there is a lot of salt. Small price for me right now for the satisfying taste and relaxed tummy. Down #10 pre-op, #15 post. Only worry is no BM yet. Guess I'm heading out to get some Mirilax. Can't wait. :/

Go easy with the mirilax. I did about half of the recommended dose and the next day......BOOM. I went 5x's. I know TMI but I figured better share my story
