FairySleeve 297 Posted August 8, 2014 I've lost totally post-op 22 lbs and just saw my doctor today for the first check-up. He told me that I should eat solid normal food now and stop with the Soup and soft food. Still no restriction for food excepr candies, sweet stuff and soda. I took photos of most of my food during one month to show him with the portion (compare to my iPhone), he said I should eat more to lose weight. Now he ordered me to eat my meal in the portion of the iPhone!! OMG, I thought I would die from stuffing myself for that amount of food but actually it's fine. Just make sure to chew well and eat verrrrrrrrrrrry slowly. So my first solid meal I went for Japanese, 1 small grilled ravioli, 1 beef & cheese teriyaki, 1 table spoon of rice and some green salad with sesame dressing. Everything's gone in 50 minutes hehe except the rice because I chose to eat more salad instead. I can exercise, go to swimming pool etc. Oh, I do have to increase also the Water intake from 1 litre to 1.5 litre. Oh I'm so happy and feel like back to normal again. I'm eating out this weekend tomorrow I was invited to lunch at my friend's and on Sunday, brunch with my inlaws at a restaurant. It's going to be my first meal at the restaurant but my husband will be my buddy. He will choose 2 light dishes that he can eat his dish and help me with my left over, so it won't be too obvious because I didn't tell my family that I had the sleeve done. Now I feel like the real challenge has just started. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FairySleeve 297 Posted August 8, 2014 My doctor never gave me calories limit. He is more into the small portion. He said I should eat a little bit of everything (Carb, Protein, fat, fruits, vegetable) Oh, he told me to eat 1 Cereal bar for afternoon snack for the Vitamins... and I hate Cereal bar!!!

FairySleeve 297 Posted August 8, 2014 He said I ate too little, I need to eat more to lose more weight. In the past one month this is the portion that I ate for 1 meal.[a ttachment=47150:image.jpg] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
