Why do people act like progressing to the next food stage at your doctor's orders is failing your sleeve? If you're able to progress to the next stage and still make healthy choices that's one step closer to living a normal healthy life. Some of the healthiest foods are not allowed in the liquid and pureed phases and I'm sure there are plenty of mushy foods that got us to where we are today.

Wait, whuuuuut? Where did anyone "act like progressing" is "failing your sleeve"?

I asked a sincere question, got a sincere reply and shared my different experience. See, some of us can actually have different opinions WITHOUT getting defensive. It's a cool thing, really. It's called adulting. ;)

Welllppp... I was the only one who had a differing experience, so... And NO ONE said ANYTHING about "failing their sleeve" or progressing off plan.

Who WERE you addressing then?

:D

I was addressing the various posts I've read practically condemning people who were choosing to follow their doctors orders and not random people in a forum. You may have seen and/or participated in them. If what I said did not apply to you feel free to read and move along resting assured that if I ever wanted to address you I would quote or @ you. @@LipstickLady

A while ago someone posted a link for General Tso's "Skinny Chicken".

It is pan cooked rather than deep fried and was a lower calorie alternative to the original.

It was a hit with my family when I made it.

There are lower calorie, healthier recipes when we have a "jones on" for something more indulgent.

I think the big question here is, How many grams of Protein is in one serving of your average cat?

I literally LOL'Ed.

Once I was on solid foods I had steamed chicken and vegetables and added my own szechuan seasoning. Rice is out for me too many carbs and it makes me feel weird. I have had general tso's chicken but usually only 2-3 pieces before I am full.

Now 10 months out I go for steamed veggies and Protein and I add my own seasoning. It's just not worth the calories for me.

The Green Beans or the Broccoli - Stay Veggie based and RUN AWAY from the starches (Rice is a PAINFUL experience for me - Immediately). Have some chicken and pineapple, and enjoy the Conversation (Never really heard people talking Before the Sleeve!)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
