Hi, I was sleeved on 09.15 I am in soft/mushy food phase I. I am allowed to have broccoli but it has to be cooked and eat only the florets... I tried a couple of days ago, and it went fine... so far so good. I hope you are doing well

I was sleeved 9/12 as well and no change in weight for 9 days. The week before that I only lost one lbs so I'm double irked. As for the broccoli question I have eaten it, it just has to be cooked down. I'm pretty much eating normally now but I have not tried salads yet.

I was the 13th. Why not make broccoli Soup. I know it's not crunchy but the smell and taste might take the edge off. You could add unflavired Protein too

Hey, sorry it took me so long to reply. Well, about Protein, I really struggle to meet my goal, because I hate the rtd milkshakes. I am tired of them, all the vanilla flavor taste too sweet for me now and I can't stand it. I eat a lot of Beans Soup (red kidney, split peas), however, since I don't eat that much, I don't really get a lot of protein from it. I eat also chicken that was cooked with Soup because it keeps it moisted and the nurse practitioner advised me to eat it that way... I eat scramble eggs with cheese and milk. Also, I drink close to one cup of milk, for some reason, I enjoy it cold and in the morning, specially after taking my Multivitamin. I am buying a milk from kroger called carb master and has 11 grams of protein... also I eat half of a low fat cheese stick, like sharp cheddar. All these were tips that the nurse practitioner gave me during my 2 week post op. Next Thursday I will see her again for my 4 weeks post op. I hope the info was helpful.

      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.
