I was sleeved on May 19th, but I was a revision patient, from a lap band with plication to VSG. It was an emergency surgery, but we had been planning to do it: just not as an emergency! So, this post-op diet is not my first rodeo. I have found take out Soups to be a godsend these past few days. Yesterday I called my favorite Chinese food spot and ordered egg drop Soup. It was the most delicious thing I have ever consumed I think! Theirs is chicken broth based and very thin, so it has the favors of the green onions/shrimp, but none of the hard to digest items. I also had some of my favorite broth based tortilla soup from a local Mexican place one evening. Maybe this will help some of you, as it has for me. Also, let me pat you all on the back for choosing the VSG rather than doing a band. I am so glad to have that thing out: it never worked properly for me, and I can already tell this procedure is going to work so much better for me. I lost weight with my band, but only because it turned me into a bullemic, basically. The best treat this week: a "gourmet" Popsicle shop just opened up in town! Good timing, I would say!
