I was sleeved on the 16th and am currently on soft foods phase. Has anyone tried fresh greenbeans? I just strung and broke a whole pot of them but not sure if I should try them or not. I have done ok on eggs, cottage cheese and yogurt but can only eat about quarter of a cup and then wait 30 mins and do the other half of the cup.

no veggies for me yet still 4-6 weeks out. But man it does sound good.

That sounds awesome. My highest weight was 260 day of surgery 245 and now 230..my weight seems to be coming off slowly, maybe 1-2 lbs a week. My surgery was the 16th but I'm only getting about 500 calories in a day. Are you able to get your calories and Proteins in? Are you able to exercise yet? I am happy that I'm losing but others seem to lose faster than me and I'm just trying to figure out what I need to change or improve on..thanks for any advice..

June 30th, the surgery itself was great, I was teasing my Doctor and Nurses telling them are you sure you gave me surgery I was feeling really good ( I'm sure the pain Meds helped lol...I only took the Meds for one day at home and have be walking an average of 5.000 steps a day. Now for the liquid diet, that is a whole other story, I'm only 4 days out, but the 4th of July has not helped things, I'm not hungry but dealing with the mental part of smelling the BBQ and watching all my friends and family eat and drink has been a challenge. I have decided to stay in a little more than usual at least until I can start soft foods. I wish everyone the best!!!!!

Glad to have a check in source aka fellow June sleevers...

band to sleeve revision Surgery 6/24

HW 265

SW 225

CW 213

No regrets but the recovery time has been much more grueling, slow and emotionally painstaking than the band. I go back to work Monday but am still extremely sore on my left side..convinced I pulled a muscle.. Also still tire easily.. Seems the left side pain diminishes after 3 wks or so, would anyone agree?

Experimenting with foods and have been focusing on Protein Shakes and Soups but can get greens down too.. Also experimenting with a lil bit of juicing. Last two days had some avocado and quickly feel nauseous, though it's soft maybe it's too pastey for me to have just yet..

Idk how some people have been drinking alcohol 1 wk or so out. I had three sips of wine yesterday and combine that with the avocado I wanted to die from feeling overfull. I love my wine and avocados and I know in time I will be able to have both in moderation but as of now I'm terrified to try it again..

      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.
