Mushy soft stage

[mrsbst 0]

It's been 4 weeks since I had the sleeve (3/18/13)...it seems like I've developed acid reflux and not able get all my Water in. I'm not able to eat tuna it egg whites because they make me throw up. I can keep down salmon, oatmeal, mashed potatoes and certain Soups. Does anyone have any ideas on what to eat? Or what I should do about my water intake? I've only lost 28lbs since my surgery...should I be discourged?

Did you try some greek yogurt,,,,get some chili and put some shredded cheese( microwave it) on it and a couple spoons greek yogurt, also cheeses, you can make the ricotta bake ... mix ricotta cheese with an egg add what spices u like( garlic powder , oregano) put in microwave safe plate add some sauce to it top with shredded cheese and nuke it about 3 minutes... yummy..also how about some cottage cheese. Dont be discouraged my surgery was on 3/19/13 and i have lost less than 28 pounds but I am still proud. I have a hard time getting in my water...

28 pounds in one month is AMAZING. I think you need to slow down a wee bit. What are your dr's recs for this stage? Mine doesn't even let us eat purees till week 5... Mushy at week 7, then can start to introduce food (like salmon) at week 9. Your tiny tummy needs time to heal.

Blended? I would put it through the blender.

Sleeved 3/18/13 as well. Hardly anything sets well. I've tried the usual suspects. Yogurt, Beans such as pintos, and Wendy's chili set the best with me. Mashed potatoes do well, but they're all carbs so I try to limit it. snack cheese sticks with lunch meat hurt, even chewed to mush. No meats other than in Wendy's chili do well with me. I will be watching this thread

I bought turkey chili no Beans I am planning to try. I know you said you don't like beans but you might try hummus. It is usually flavored really well .
