Sleevers show me your.......

[JerseyJules 862]

food....Seriously post pictures of your foods!!

Im considering the VSG surgery and really want to know what to expect and would appreciate of some of your recent or long time sleevers would share pictures of your meals and portion sizes so I can get an idea what to expect down the road following surgery.

A big stress factor for me in deciding to do this or now is fearing the unknown after surgery. I want to have a good idea what to expect in the days, weeks and years to follow. If Im going to do something that cant be undone I want to know EXACTLY what Im getting myself into.

Thank you in advance for your replies.

This was Christmas dinner, I was sleeved on 12/8 and had started on purée 14 days out, I had 2 oz of Turkey, 1 oz of green Beans, 1 oz of dressing, 1 oz sweet potatoes, I tolerated an oz of turkey and just tasted the rest. My SW was 221, my current weight today was 199.2!!!! So happy!!!!

Does anyone eat Baby food during the Puree phase?

I eat the fruits, but that's it, and that's when I'm on the run and need something to eat quickly

My Bariatric team's rules say no baby food. "It's made for babies that need to grow, not adults who need to loose." These words exactly were in my handbook. So no, I never ate it during the puree phase.

That looks sooooooo appetizing...lol What do you mean you tolerated 1 oz of turkey? No appetite or just wasnt good pureed?

[wruiz 49]

It was as much as I could eat,I felt extremely full. I had just started purée so I guess maybe that could be it.

I had Beech-Nut chicken baby food and just seasoned it. It was good.

I did because I couldn't tolerate the Celebrate, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, BariLife or Chike! shakes. I finally went back to the Atkins shakes even though they had less Protein because the baby food had too many carbs versus Protein.

Do any of the doctors have an issue with Muscle Milk brand Proteins?

My nutritionist had muscle milk on the list of shakes I was allowed, I did fine with them pre-op, but post-op I can't tolerate them, they are just too sweet for me

I was told the same thing.

My nut said Muscle Milk was ok, as long as it was the Pro version, in a black cannister

Take a look also at YouTubers who had wls....they do a lot of videos showing grocery hauls, what they eat in a typical day, etc. Most of them are pretty responsible by admitting up front it's what works for them, but may not be for everyone. I got a lot of good ideas from that pre and post op.
