Two weeks ago today I had the surgery that will truly change my life (and has). I am down 11 pounds since surgery and 27 overall. I get to start mushies today and am soooooooo excited. cottage cheese, avacado and tuna for lunch....chew, chew, chew! I return to work tomorrow- not too excited about that- have really enjoyed time off. Oh well- gotta make the $$$. I hope this finds everyone doing well. Keep you posted.

So glad you've reached Mushies! Hah, I just never knew cottage cheese and fat-free refried beans could taste SO good!! Way to go!

Mmmmmmmushies! Feels like heaven after that liquid diet! -BG

Hi there - I am 10 days post op, and had my follow up with the surgeon and I can start mushies, too! I cannot tell you how excited I was to have cottage cheese today! I am headed back to work on Monday (two weeks out for me), I am down 25 lbs over all, and 13 since surgery.

Congratulations! You are doing great!

Cottage cheese never tasted so good to me! You are getting further in your journey! Congrats....

Wow, you all seem to do so well, I am 2 weeks post op and following all rules and have gained 3 pounds. Help!

Cottage cheese is my staple! I eat it with everything. If you have something a little dry it helps to break up the texture and tastes great. I have to admit I am picky about my cottage cheese. I guess I am a cottage cheese snob! ;-D
