  6. I know at times it frustating my doctor said that the sleeve is like a roll a coaster ride for some in the begining but given time and following diet it works I to am on 800 calories meats and veg only and of course the shakes which i did get Body Fortress from Walmart cause of the diabets it has the lowest sugars i could find three months out lost 60 and no longer on insulin or any diabetis meds
  7. Doing good i lost 10 before and 10 the first week after so you doing better then i did its now 11 weeks i lost 60 bet you can beat me go for it :-)
  8. Not sure but I dont remember reading anything about shell fish in Walmarts Body Fortress which is what I use and it really does taste good except Strawberry but that my opion and it cost less then most others
  9. At least your broth looks ready to eat my first meal looked like your tray but i got a hot bowl of water the dry mix was hidden i looked at that bowl and thought i know it was a clear liquid diet but a bowl of hot water and a spoon this is silly. But hang in there it gets better and easyer as time goes on been 3 months now for me
  10. I guess each doctor has his or hers own sch I had my surgery 10 weeks ago but i only had to stay on liquid diet for 2 weeks then puree diet but even then it was only the meats that i had to puree Vegtables as long as fully cooked could be eaten as is. There are a number of diets for the sleeve surgery on the net. but I just ignored them and stayed with the one the dietian the doctor assigned me gave out now almost 11 weeks out and eating normal type food now i still have not touched carbs and the 60 lbs i lost have given me complete freedom form insulin (YEA) still today my tummy feels tight as i eat but it also tells me ok that enough Just listen to that tight feeling and stop
  11. I have the same problem had to resort to boringly slow chewing and stopping as soon as i even thought it was tight or full and it has worked for me lost 30 pounds in 4 weeks and 10 the week before on the liquid diet so as they say looking good so far
  12. I just had my 4 week check up and had a similar experiance but both the doctor and dietian said it is expected in the second two week to slow drasticly then pick up again in a week or so there is no explination for it just is i lost 27 pounds the first two weeks then just 4 the next too so dont worry
