What are you guys eating!? Proteins?

Just got cleared for purée today!

I got cleared for soft foods today! Yay! So tonight I'm having baked chicken, carrots, and sweet peas! Yum! I know I won't eat much of any of those but hey, I get to chew! lol

I am cleared for soft foods- so I've been doing some deli meat, cheeses, cottage cheese, fruits, lowfat ground pork/beef. How are you guys doing in weight loss? I did really well for the first 10 days after surgery and now I feel like it's going soo slow! I'm probably just being impatient!

@@gbstreck I've lost a total of 25 lbs. I lost 12 lbs pre-op and 13 lbs post-op and I've lost a total of 9 inches so far. I'm very pleased with my weight loss! I did have a whole week where I didn't lose anything though. How are you doing?

@@sleevegirl2 What stage are you at right now?

Congratulations!! I had gastric bypass May 21st, lost 15 pounds pre surgery and am down 19 since surgery. I guess I am just confused because I lost most of those 19 pounds in the first 10 days and now it's been pretty flat so I'm second guessing myself that I'm doing something wrong! After I write that it's pretty ridiculous that I'm even questioning it!

I lost 40 pounds since surgery. I didn't have a preop diet so basically it's been all within the last month.

I am still on the full liquid stage, however I did try some chicken and Beans, and it was okay, I felt fine. It's so weird cause then the next day I had Tomato Soup and I feel like I'm overfull and the food is just sitting in my throat.

@@sleevegirl2 WOW! 40 lbs, that's awesome! Oh I am so glad I only had to stay on full liquids for a week! I couldn't have handled it any longer, lol. I do the same thing with foods, one day I'll be able to eat almost a whole scrambled egg, then the next day only 2 bites! Every food is going to be different. It's crazy but I'm guessing it's the new "normal".

@@gbstreck 19 lbs in less than 3 weeks is amazing! You are definitely doing a great job!

Have either of you started exercising yet? All I'm cleared for right now is walking, swimming, and I'm able to use those resistant bands.

[gbstreck 3]

No, I have just been walking. I've been having some trouble with back pain that radiates around to one of my incisions- so it's been painful to do much of anything, unfortunately looking forward to getting started to see how it will help my weight loss progress!

Ok. Not sure how this site works. I am 19 days post op. Never had vomiting and trying to work on 60 minute rule for liquids r/e food. Tough!
