What is it DeeDee? how long after surgery could you have that? Did you tolerate it ok !

4oz refried Beans with cheese and 1 oz peach. Served by bariatric team during post OP class.
I was extremely nervous!!
I ate the beans over 2 hrs. 1/3 at a time. I had a bariatric forkful of the peaches and stopped.

I’m getting better each day. On this morning I feel a little stuffy my throat. I hope I’m not catching a cold.

4 days post OP and had my post OP class today with lunch included afterwards. I'd been on Clear Liquids since day before surgery.
I tell you, refried Beans has never tasted heavenly!!! I'll share a picture and it took me an hour to finish the Beans. I couldn't finish the fruit!

I commend you guys with weeks long preop!!! Well done!!emoji122.pngemoji122.pngemoji122.png Success will be yours soon. Can't wait to welcome you to the other side soon!🧡🧡🧡

4 days post-op and you're already eating refried beans?? Lucky.

I'm 9 days post-op and the most solid thing I've eaten is greek yogurt. My program said I can start adding soft solids (scrambled eggs, refried beans, some pureed stuff, thoroughly chewed soft chicken) on day 12 or 13, but I'm going to start tomorrow. The past 2 days I've only consumed like 350 calories because I'm so tired of yogurt!

Tomorrow is the day!!! I kind of can't believe I have survived these two weeks on liquids...I'll be honest, I'm kind of sick of Protein Shakes and broth! It will be a relief to get to day 3 post-op and be able to have *full* liquids!




I had my bloodwork done Friday, and one of my tests indicated some clotting issues, so I had to start lovenox injections on Sunday. Luckily, not too bad :)


Best of luck to you!! I had my surgery Monday & honestly I don’t care what I’m sipping... Water premier... it’s just what I have to do & id be fine with nothing. I have no appetite. However I’ve set my alarm for every 10 minutes & I just look at is as part of my recovery. I’m doing Enoxaparin shots in my stomach 2x a day to prevent clots. Keep us posted on your progress. Next time you contact us you’ll be on the losers bench!!! Yay!!!!!

Congrats!!You must be thrilled since there’s a substantial difference!!! Wonderful!!! I had the sleeve ... had wanted RNY but surgeon made an executive decision when he had me on the table to do the sleeve because of scar tissue. Glad to see that the sleeve is working out so well for you! Ps.... how do we post pics? I’m still learning this app!!

No not baked beans. It's a slow cooked beans that is then mashed and then reheated Name is misleading as it's not "refried" like with oil or anything. It's a very Tex-Mex cuisine and not close to traditional baked beans with sugar added.
This was fat free/vegan and no sugar added.

I had microwaved eggs yesterday and it didn't go down well for me so I'm staying away for now. Let me know how scrambled work for you.

Good luck 🧡🧡🧡

😊 Scrambled eggs was fine. I could only eat just over half so it was 1/2 an egg . What did it do to you ? I had Tomato Soup the other day and really suffered for it. It was stupid . Because my son could have it after his surgery, I thought it would be ok . Bad idea ! I’ll stick to what my paperwork says in future !

      Hey guys new to the process looking forward to this new life.

      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.
