Eating Habits 1 week out



Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I was sleeved Aug 22nd and was curious if everyone is following their NUT plan to the T. I'm having a hard time with the Soups and broths, and have been eating some mashed potatoes and some eggs and cheese sticks. I do chew it like a million times before swallowing , my stomach seems to be alright. I'm losing weight which is awesome (down 19lbs since Aug22nd) but I want to be sure I'm not screwing this process up.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Nicholas: I'm having trouble with the broth because it tastes different than I remembered. I used to love chicken broth. Now it tastes different. Everything tastes hot and spicy.

I was sleeved the same day as you were. Per my doctors orders, I am still doing the full liquid diet. At this point I have found a groove of Premier Protein shakes and cream Soups either with enough Protein or protein added to them. To combat the boredom, I am spending a little more money and getting "deli" quality soups like Tomato bisque, lobster bisque, broccoli cheese etc...if they are a little chunky I am running them through my bullet with a little milk. Personally, I will wait until my surgeon okays my next phase until I venture onto anything other than full liquids. Good job on your weight loss! :)

I'm doing the pure clear liquid diet. I'm only on Day 3, so I know I can hang on. I hung on for the Protein drinks. I'll just keep hopping on here and complaining. My incisions make it difficult to stand up and sit down. It's hard to get out of bed, but I need to pee every 30 minutes.

I had surgery on Jan 28th. Liquids for 2 wks. Then 2 weeks puréed. Then 2 wks soft. This is the miracle operation. I am living proof. As bad as it is in the first couple weeks it's not worth messing up the size of your stomach. You could stretch it. Drink!!!!! Drink pill cups worth all the time!!! You won't regret ignoring food for a while. I went from 252 to 148 in 7 months. Life changing!!!!!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      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.
