My doc sent me home with Zofran and I use it when I need to. The French onion Soup sounds fantastic! I'm just backing off and going with what my sleeve can handle.

I know this sounds wierd but try wendys chili, mush it with a fork and chew it well. I swear it was the only thing that I could deal with for about 2 weeks. I have a wonderful copy cat recipe for it if it works for you!!

I hate sugar free anything, will not eat anything that is sugar free. Look up infused Water recipes they may help you also. I am not loosing weight as fast as others but I am not getting sick either. I am 30 pounds down since 5-11-15

I think you posted on another thread about their chili. I'm glad because I tried it last week and it works! I had 1/2 cup today. If not, thanks for sharing! Things are looking up!

I will use as my base the things that work and you can tolerate. Slowly try new things and add them in one at a time. I would give new foods a week before adding in more. As far as non dairy milks go hemp mike has the most Protein, but it's not a taste everyone likes. In the bean family split pea, lentils and black Beans have the most Protein. You can always puree them and mix with low sodium broth to make them more palatable. These would be foods to help you get more protein in during those early post op days.

If you are having trouble getting in Water try diluting 100% apple juice or white grape juice with your Water. They are high in sugar so be careful. I find a 1 part juice 3 parts water is tolerable for me, but that varies depending on your sweet tooth. I also enjoy water more ice cold so I pile on lots of ice. and even freeze the water bottles.< /p>

Have you tried Premier Protein it has 30 mg of Protein and taste great they have three flavors but I like the vanilla. Good Luck

@@AfitRN2015 I appreciate the tips! I'm doing great today. No more nausea. I'm able to get fluids in easily. I drank an Isopure Protein Drink with no issues. Tomorrow I get to try yogurt.

@@by Gods Grace I've been using Premier Protein for many weeks. It's my favorite out of all the Protein Drinks that I've tried. I don't like Isopure Protein drinks. Weird flavor and too high in carbs. Nothing I've eaten so far bothers my sleeve. I hope it offers the restriction I need to lose weight!

[mchap25 65]

I love the premiere Protein too but sleeve doesn't. Can't wait to try it again soon.

Try mashed cauliflower in the blender I do mine with some Protein Powder and I can't belive it's not butter... It looks and kinda tastes like mashed potatoes. You may have to wean yourself over to it.. Try mixing the potatoes in with less each time. Also have you tried almond milk. Even the chocolate is good. You may need to add some benefiber too. I have an angery sleeve too and found that 5 meals of a spoonful was better - sleeved June 16, 2015
