I had spinach, cheese, tomatoes and mushrooms and peppers in it. I think I took big bites and ate it too fast. I got down less than half and the pain just became excruciating. I'll try eggs again in a couple weeks or maybe a couple months. That pain sucked!
How many ounces was everything ?
It's best to try things like that on it's own see how you get on then add other items. To see how your stomach reacts. I'm 7 months post and can't eat a whole egg with all of what you mentioned. Though I'm also a short female. So you as a man would have more space

My surgeons plan doesn’t even allow solid foods until 3 months out. These posts give me hope because we have 1 week of clear, 3 weeks of liquid, 2 weeks of puréed and 3 weeks of soft. I need to ask about it because every other plan I see moves along faster, as tolerated.

I am sure the puréed and soft stage is much better than the liquid. I will be ready for an egg by then, and I’m not even a big fan of eggs! LoL

I have learned everyone’s doc is different Cuz mine said Clear Liquids the first 2 days after surgery then I can switch to just liquids and could have cream soups... it’s a bit confusing but I’m trying to just go with the flow of things I had my surgery on the 30th and I’m having a hard time with the Protein

I tried the Jello in the hospital. Didn't bro well with it so I stopped trying. No shoulder pain. Just in my chest. Dont know if I'm doing to myself when I drink but I get it when I'm not drinking so idk. Ill have to ask my Dr. I really like my tea and Protein Shakes. I ordered some awesome ones from this site.

Mine is 2 weeks of liquids getting in 60grams of Protein Shakes per day, that 2 pre made Premier Protein and 64oz of Water. Then at 2 weeks we can have soft Proteins but supposed to have 2 shakes and one soft meal. I started soft Protein on day 5 I couldn’t wait. I’ve been trying different things here and there with no problems so far.

My doc had my on 2 days of clear liquids then the “full liquids “ for 10 days .. I liked being able to get back to my Protein Drinks (I’m allergic to dairy so I’m using the one I’ve used for years) then after that the puréed stage for 2 weeks then “ soft chopped moist foods” for 3 weeks the back to regular food... March 19th lol they have it all planned for us. They say that if we don’t do well on the next step to go back a step and slowly add something from the next step.

I like using the boxed butternut squash Soup with a scoop of my Protein Powder mixed in.. I also put my crushed pill/supplements in it. Works well.

i see my doc on Monday as I need to go back to work Tuesday and need his ok. Several people that work in the program said they were able to go back that soon but use lunch time as a nap lol

we did this!!! Woohoo 🎉

      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.
