I'm on soft food now. I bought pizza sauce, turkey pepperoni, and low fat cheese. I just microwave it together in a bowl. I tried it on a tortilla but that was too much for my pouch.

Did u get the regular pizza sauce or do they sell lite

I got Ragu pizza sauce in a jar. 4 ounces has 5 carbs and 3 grams of sugar. I only use about an ounce, 4-5 pepperoni and a sprinkling of cheese.

Ok this is a little off the wall, but going thru my Rachel Ray magazine I found a fork that would be great for all of us losers... It's called a HAPIfork. It vibrates and lights up when you are eating too fast! Tracks your total meal time, time in between meals and more! And they are only $100 each, yes each!! Technology.... Hmmmmm

I've been using the app Eat Slower. It's free and you can set your bite intervals. You can have it vibrate or alarm when it's time for another bite!

I am still on boost shakes and water... I hve no problem with Water or sf Jello or broth but these boost shakes make my stomach hurt so bad for like an hour! I don't know what to do because they are the only thing I'm cleared to drink with any nutritional value. But they make me sick

Between the weight I lost pre op and the amount I've lost post none of my clothes fit. My ring stopped fitting before surgery and I was super sad because I had just gotten engaged mid October and by end of December I couldn't wear it anymore. It's so beautiful sometimes I go peak at it lol

18 days out and I've hit a stall the last 4 days. So frustrating. I'm getting all my Protein in, 60g, but I'm having an issue getting 64oz of fluids. I find it hard because of having to sip. Going to try upping my protein intake to see if that helps.

I hit a stall at 15 days out my doctor said the 3rd week usually is the first stall. My stall broke shortly after. Good luck! :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
