2 Weeks Post Surgery

How much weight have you lost since your actual surgery date?

i am post surgery 3 weeks today and i went ot the dr.s on monday and i have lost 20 lbs since the surgery. i didn't think that was bad but i see some people have lost more. my doctor has put me on mushy foods but am eating some solid food. does anyone have any idea on some great mushy food ideas? im still have some bloating and gas pain which the doctor says i will have for a couple of more weeks untill my belly swollening goes down. did anyone else have that proble?

Congratulations, keep up the good work!

SIRENA 88 I am only down 12 since my surgery. I lost 10 on the 10 days I was on liquids and 10 prior to that for my Dr.

newdanielle I don't have any great ideas. I eat scrambled eggs, greek yogurt, cottage cheese. I can eat some non mushy things, like moist ham (deli style). I like to eat a slice of ham with a light laughing cow cheese. Oh, and I eat a ton of beans. Tonight I had ground beef with a TBSP of light sour cream for a taco night substitute. It was really good and with the sour cream mixed in, it was quite mushy. I also will have 1oz of mozzeralle cheese as a snack. It is really soft. I had the bloating for quite some time after my sugery but it is gone now.

what kind of bean are you eating cause i had baked beans.

I like refried and black beans. The Old El Paso traditional are quite reasonable in fat and cal. I mix them with a little water prior to cooking and a little shake of garlic powder.
