Three week post-op appointment today. Only lost 5lbs in the last two weeks, but hey! That's 5lbs gone forever! Bye bye! :) Started pureed stage today, I'm just so happy I can eat something other than pudding/yogurt/creamy soup! Does anyone have any good suggestions for this stage? I already had tuna fish today, just waiting to see what I can conjure up for dinner.< /p>

I did things like refried Beans and a bit of cheese, also turkey chili is good. Quick meal turkey meatball or loaf with some watery gravy and watery instant mashed potatoes.

Same with chicken and gravy.

I would cook a few scrambled eggs and then pick out some lowfat cheese and spice it up with greek seasoning. pureed, I thought it was delicious!!

refried Beans sounds soooo good. i have leftover meatloaf from dinner yesterday, but i'm not sure if i want to venture into it because it's beef and i was pretty sure it was only like 80% lean. my mom made it and she's a skinny mini, sooo.. lol

i'm actually not allowed to have scrambled eggs yet? on my diet progression it says "soft cooked or poached egg (NOT SCRAMBLED), which i'm really curious as why i can't have scrambled. BUT I'M DYING FOR EGGS! LOL

Refried Beans with cheese was my go-to, as well as cottage cheese, hummus, advocado, red and white beans (cooked down), and lots of cheese!! I love cheese!

To my knowledge, I have never had lamb shank or minted gravy...and poor you...CHEESE is the best food ever! AND it's full of protein!

I was a cheese addict before the surgery. Now.. not so much. Makes me acidy... and I can't be doing with the acid.. Guess I should be grateful that my cheese consumption is now nil...

My NUT said that scrambled eggs are soft cooked as long as you add a bit of milk to them before cooking.

Hey Chelsi! You and I share a surgeon! I was sleeved on 10/4 and have my next appointment this Thursday. I cannot wait for them to tell me that it's time to puree!

When looking at all the information regarding the puree diet, I asked about the no scrambled thing. The nutritionist explained that scrambled eggs used to be on the list but a lot of patients were stating that they were not feeling too hot after having them, so they simply removed them from the list. Just FYI :)

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
