Sleeved On Oct 28Th

[italiana926 9]

Was sleeved on oct 28th. On my first week post op was down 14lbs. It was a struggle with shakes and Vitamins and liquid. I finally can drink premier Protien vanilla and bariatrics chewable vitamins. The problem I'm having now is what to eat. It is 4 weeks today and I don't know what to eat. I have oatmeal, Greek yogurt, broth with a little pastina in it. But that's pretty much it. Anything solid than that feels like it's stuck it very uncomfortable Does anyone know where I can get recipes or other foods to try. Thank you

Try using smaller utensils so you take smaller bites. I have been eating ground beef, chicken and various other meats for just over a week and I have been feeling fine except when I take bigger bites then I feel awful. I was sleeved October 31st.

Wow! Acubi, you are on solids already?? I was sleeved the same day and still on liquids only. I start pureed on thursday. Cant wait!

How are you doing so far?

To OP, you can get recipes from world according to eggface. Or just google bariatric food plans. Today I made a fat free refried Beans recipe I found on the net in anticipation of my next phase. They freeze great and it smelled out of this world!!!

Good luck!

Thank you. I do though. That's the thing. I can't believe your on meat already. I can't have meat till my 5th week then I can incorporate chicken and beef. Right now I'm in soft foods. Fish but not chicken.

How are you doing so far

I am doing great I have been on solids just over 2 weeks. The hardest part for me has been eating slowly. Nothing really bothers me, except sweet things turn my stomach. I haven't had any nausea or vomiting. I do have a hard time getting in enough Protein and that might explain my stall. So far I am only down 39lbs.
