Good for you. Everyone is different. Some people can tolerate more than others at similar times post op. I think it is great that you are able to get your Protein from such different sources.

I am three months out, and I too can eat almost anything. I do however follow a plan, no sweets, low carbs, high Protein, no bread, no Pasta. Water, coffee (black), diet ice tea, or unsweet tea. I count all my calories on the app "Lost it" and try to stay between 800 to 1000 a day. This works best for me. I can only get in 3 to 4 oz at a time anyway. But feel very satisfied with my choices of meals. I love my sleeve, and so glad I made the decision to have healthy active life.

I am 5 weeks out and can eat most anything too. Ice cream or frozen yogurt doesn't sit too well and sometimes restaurant food makes me feel sick but for the most part I can eat what I choose.

I'm 9 weeks out, on phase 5, where I can eat whatever I can tolerate. I haven't had any foods that gave me a problem - no dumping, sliming, vomiting. I did notice today after a couple of bites from a turkey club that the bacon was not sitting well. Not making me sick, just a little stomach turning. I took the bacon off (hubby ate it). I only ate half of my half-sandwich before I'd had enough.

I'm getting 800-1000 calories a day, and have lost 38 lbs in the 9 weeks since surgery.

      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.
