Next phase in diet- bring on the mushy foods



Recommended Posts

Highest Weight 235

Pre-op weight 220

Current weight 195

I'm down 3 pant sizes:)

Surgery Dec 5, 2013

I just started mushy foods last Friday and it feels great to actually chew! Doing great getting Water and liquids in but struggling to get the 80 grams of Protein in. Trying to add unflavored Protein powder to my foods and drinks. Feel great!

I feel like my energy level is higher, I'm gaining confidence, just got an amazing job offer at my dream company so I can leave my super stressful current job, I love being able to exercise without pain, put my shoes on easier, I had serious knee issues and the 40 lbs I lost has greatly lessened my knee pain. I don't feel deprived, I feel very satisfied and no hunger. I only wish I did this years ago!

Congrats on your success so far! ...and grats on the job offer! It feels really good to work at a nice company. I think I would have struggled with WLS working at my previous job due to the stress, environment etc...

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
