Pureed /blended stage

[Tgrindle 23]

Started purée today and made the ricotta bake, oh what cheesy goodness I have missed! It really does taste great. I had told my wife that I was afraid I would not know when I was full, well let me tell you 20 min and 2 ounces feels like after thanksgiving or Christmas dinner right about now.

Hey Johanna,

I understand your struggle 100 percent but here is what I think you should do. you have done a huuuuge step even though you might not notice it, * you actually realized that you have a problem with obesity and you want to change* try not to put so much pressure on your self because you might end up getting very frustrated and end up consoling your self with more food. I think you should look for a good surgeon and go to a seminar and see if you really want surgery. The way I saw the 6-month weigh-in was a tool to mentally prepare me for my new life. During these six months, you should start making changes in your eating habits and your lifestyle in general. The time will go by extremely fast. You have this forum along with your bariatric team for support. You are not alone.

Where are you going? I had Metroplus and I didn't have to wait the 6 months.

I also agree with getting to mentally prepare for the big day.
