Congrats on the 23 pounds!!!! That's awesome!!!!!

I seriously was full and laughing because I couldn't believe I couldn't eat the whole egg lol. It's defiantly a different feeling, that's for sure!!!

Oh yes! Me too! Because before the surgery, It was barely enough to eat 3 large scrambled eggs, 2-3 sausage patties or links and grits, sometimes even 2 packs of instant for my Breakfast, so yes, I do see what you mean more than you know. Lol!

congrats on the loss.

it's an interesting thing isn't it. I'm glad I can't eat much and have lost weight but sometimes it's dissapointing to be full after only a few bites. I made a slow cooker pulled pork for dinner tonight and it tasted so amazing that I was actually kind of sad that I could only eat three bites of it

I went out for lunch for the first time with friends this weekend. I thought it would be hard to see them ordering yummy food as I'm only just two weeks post surgery. I ordered Tomato bisque Soup. I thought I'd finish the soup, but after two tablespoons I was full. Such a strange feeling. I forced myself to go out as I don't want my social life to suffer just because I can't eat like everyone else. I'm so glad I did, I had a great time with my friends and didn't feel disappointed not eating the same as that. Good luck everyone, love seeing positive messages .

You are braver than I am. I'm 12 days out and have season tix to theater Wednesday night with friends. We always go to dinner before the show. I just can't imagine being in that situation quite yet. Not even sure where they are picking to go to dinner or if there is anything liquid in the menu I could have. I suppose any place with Soup I could have the chef blend it for me. Never had to ask for that before. I'm going to meet them at the theater. I'm glad you were able to enjoy your friends at dinner!

Yeah I am 16 days post op and tried purée this afternoon. I had some purée chicken breast with some siracchi for flavor. I managed about the equivalent of 2 table spoons of food and I was stuffed. In fact I felt full for about 5 hrs afterwards...

Haha same here! I did a chicken with a little guac. Ate 1 1/2 tbsp (maybe) so full after for hours. I never thought I would have to force food in!!

Same thing with me. I can't even drink anything for hours afterwards.

That's why today, I'm starting with my Protein shakes and Water.

And then later this evening if I get hungry I will attempt a meal. Because my nutritionist said it's more important to get fluids in than food at this point.

So that's what I'm going to concentrate on today and see how it goes.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
