Today I am 3 weeks out and have started my soft stage. I have had 2 20oz Protein Shakes with low fat milk. Then I have had 1/4 cottage cheese twice, 1oz tuna with mayo, 2 sugar free Popsicles, and 1/4 applesauce, and 1 wedge laughing cow cheese,.

After 3 weeks of like nothing, this seems like overload. Is it?

Are you logging that into a tracker? It should give you a good idea as to whether that is the right amount. Did your Dr. give you guidelines to follow?

I think this matches my soft foods intake at the beginning and then I stopped Protein Shakes and upped the ounces

Every doctor has different diet guidelines for his post-op patients. The most important thing to look at is are you staying below your recommended calories per day. And are you matching your percentages of Protein and carbs to the guidelines?

      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.
