Band to Sleeve February 23rd

[Gurl4god 3]

Tired of my weight with Hypothyroidism Hashimotos i needed extra help!! So like other people I had the band 2009 2 years ago I took out all my fluids and just recently converted to Sleeve. Thank God I did Dr. said I was a mess inside!! Band wasn't for me too tight or too loose!! Feeling pretty good so far but my Dr. wants 1 month of liquids, 2nd month pureed but I can't wait 3 weeks is long enough! I know it's wrong but I feel like I know how to eat slow, eat alittle and really chew my food!! Anybody else know what I'm talking about?

why is recommended so much on each stage it's usually only 2 weeks of each before food. But if he says so i would follow the protocol maybe since you said your stomach was a mess when he went in its probably going to take a little more time.

No he recommends it for all his patients well for 1 to lose alot of weight I think and also safety but no one else recommends that I've talked to or read on...

How does it feel when you eat too much? Do you just measure,and that's it?

Well i am not sleeved yet i have the band i read that you are to eat 2 - 4 ounces of food per meal with dense Protein first than your veggies some people i read can handle that and some people just stop when they feel full and i think thats too late First i would probably follow what he is saying i agree with the weight lost being alot and if u cant take it anymore start very little food. are yo on liquids or puree?

My Dr gave me the same diet but I spoke to a fellow sleever and she told me that her nutritionist Todd her to start solids as soon as possible but to take it slowly. Chewing slowly and making sure to take your time doing it too. I've been tracking my calories and making sure to never go over the 500 calories and I never go over the 4 ounces even if I don't feel full
