hehe, you will need your fill at 6 weeks. I'm 8 weeks tomorrow and almost PB'd on grilled chicken breast for lunch today. Too dry, so I got some dipping sauce and it was fine from there.

Be careful what you eat, but now is healing time, not weight loss time. I lost 15 pounds the first 12 days then stopped solid on the weight loss. Nada, nothing until just this week, I'm down another 2-3 pounds. BUT, I didn't gain and I ate to satisfy.

Time to mix up your soft mushies (is that what you are on?) and add in some more foods. If you haven't, try guacamole. YUMMMMMM. That stuff has saved my butt on many occasion. I get an avocado and some powder packet of guacamole seasoning in the produce section. Mix in a little seasoning, smash and mash, very yummy, filling, healthy (lots of fat but good fat) and one avocado is more than enough.

Yippee!! 2 weeks post-op! You really ARE doing this!!!

I am a big fan of Guacamole it really does stick with you and no matter how restricted you are it goes down easy! Try eating as much solid Protein while you can after you get your fill it may be hard for those meats to go down! I cant eat BBQ anymore! Boo Hoo!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
