JULY SLEEVERS

[rhonda2006 64]

Hi I'm two weeks out Tommorow. My doctor okayed soft foods starting yesterday. Soft scrambled egg is good choice for me. I did try pintos and cheese it was ok for me no problems but I ate it slow and in several sittings I have had a few bites of mashed potatoe. That's about all the soft I've done, but in my opinion I know what to eat, but at this point I can't drink my Protein Shakes, I can't drink enough fluids, and if I have :2 bites of potatoe at least I'm getting a little something in my body. I can't hardly eat or drink anything as hard as I try to make myself.

Hi everyone! I was sleeved July 10. I was cleared for purée but I can't seem to eat anything, is this normal? I will tell you guys my day and see if some veterans can guide me

Morning: 4oz of Protein shake

Snack: sugar free banana pop

Lunch: 3 baby bites of pintos n cheese

Snack: 2 sips of juice (wouldn't go down)

Dinner: 4 bites of a scrambled egg with cheese.< /p>

When I say bites I'm using a baby spoon and I

Just can't handle anymore food. My stomach growls so sip Water bc it won't let me eat.

I don't want to mess up someone please tell me if this is right.

cauliflower instead of potatoes? just because it is white? not a substitute at all' date=' i would rather go hungry, or bang my head against a brick wall. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote']

LOL!! THere are recipes online for mashed cauliflower. I have heard (because I come from a family of carb-conscious Barbies) that it tastes pretty good. Now, I know you're thinking never trust a Barbie, but I do trust the recommendations of two of my cousins, so I know I'm trying it.
