First Day of Puree … I feel like its Christmas! lol



Recommended Posts

So … I made it! I made it through my 2 weeks of liquid diet. My poor mate, he said he thinks he saw horns. I was on edge because I was so hungry, close to foaming at the mouth. Not quite, but it felt like it. It was hard, I cannot even lie. I read about those who are like “I’m not even hungry.” and I am like WELL GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!! lol No, really I think that is great, fortunate even. I was hungry. In the second week it was kicking in, the urge to lick everything I saw my mate eating. BUT, I hung in there … knew it was the right thing to do for my health and well being and stuck it out. Now TODAY I had a boiled egg pureed with a dab of light mayo and a 1 tbs of applesauce. I have been dreaming about that egg like it was Vin Diesal. Let me tell you, it was EVERYTHING!! I chewed 25 times and was slow. Didn’t get through all of it, lol had to lick my spoon in the applesauce just to get a taste because it all didn’t fit. I was stuffed. I know now the calling card of when to stop. Pressure on my chest and the sigh. lol I wish I stopped 2 baby spoons earlier. I took my left overs and put it in the fridge, but I feel great. So happy I stuck through my two weeks, just made my Breakfast more delicious. Didn’t finish it all but it was enough, one step at a time but I feel like I’m getting there.

Most definitely. You will love it. I was dreaming about food so often lol. By Christmas I should be on regular food God willing. That way I can enjoy my Christmas even meal even if it's a teaspoon of everything. Lol well not everything ahaha.

If all goes well, I too will be enjoying a teaspoon of everything on Christmas day! I advance to regular eating from soft food on December 24th! It's going to be spectacular.

As of now I'm on full fluids. It's okay, but next Wednesday when I move onto puree foods it's going to be heavenly! The cottage cheese is going to be magical! Hahaha

Good luck everyone!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
