NewMe Mendy 2 Posted April 9, 2018 Just reading these and realized that today was March 26! I hope everyone’s surgeries went well and that you’re all feeling excited and determined. Keep us updated! I was sleeved the same day! I feel great now. Just like pre-surgery. I'm not even really bothered by cravings...just pizza. I'm finally able to get my Protein in now that I'm on solids. chicken makes it soooooo easy! How's your progress?

I take them for lunch at work. Each is about 120 cal. One doesn’t fill me up, though. I’ll have one then another 2 hrs later for lunch.< br /> I’ve also been eating out WAY more than I’d like to be. Work conference this week, travel and being social with friends. I’ll eat a few bites of sautéed brussel sprouts, quinoa, beef stew, mashed potatoes, salmon and spaghetti squash. None of it has bothered me. I’m a little nervous because I don’t know nutritional content or how much I eat but I really can’t eat much before I feel full and I feel like I’m making healthy choices. Avoiding breads. i had surgery on the 27th and i cant get any food in my except pudding . is this normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biakitty 12 Posted April 9, 2018 I had surgery on the 26th and today is my first day I am allowed to have pureed food which includes pudding. Did you have a 1 week or 2 week liquid diet? Sent from my SM-G935P using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
psmith7513 25 Posted April 9, 2018 Biakitty.. I had 1 week liquid then purée which I am still on and like must of us I don’t eat a lot so in a sense I still have liquids also .. so far popsicles, smoothies, beets, hummus, mashed potatoes, I did try the ground beef and cheese (2 baby spoons) and got tired of chewing where it was soft and trying different things but Water is my best first I even put my Protein Powder in it 1 biakitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apple203 1,314 Posted April 9, 2018 I just treated myself to 10g of Scharfenburger Bitterweet chocolate (70%) after dinner -- 28 kcal. It was soooo satisfying!! I highly recommend a good quality, 70% chocolate as an occasional treat if you are a chocoholic like me! 2 Losingit2018 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-G935P using BariatricPal mobile app I was sleeved on 3/27/18 and I’m still on liquid diet until Friday 4/13/18 when I will see my surgeon and they will decide if I’m ready for next stage. I’m down 23 lbs, I’m dizzy because not getting enough to eat. So it’s been hard trying to get out there and walk around a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does take effort to get my Protein and fluids but I'm getting the hang of it. I've lost about 14lbs since surgery, 27lbs total (from my highest weight which was a month pre-op) I was hoping to lose more but when I calculate it, I've lost almost 3lbs a week on average so who can complain about that... How about you? 1 clsumrall reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
