  1. I mean i think its because i am stuck with three scoops of Protein which is 110 each, with 12 ounces of half percent milk. Then i can only have 100% juices, canned Soups, yogurt... Anyone else get in lots of calories in the beginning stages especially, am i right to think it's because the lack of options? Maybe this is why I've only lost two pounds since surgery.
  2. My post op diet stages are... First week: Clear liquids. Second week: full liquids. Third week: pureed foods. Fourth and fifth week: soft foods. Do you think tofu would work for the soft food stage? Also has anyone had tuna and mayo blended for there pureed stage?
  3. My first one is even though i haven't lost weight since surgery (11 days post op) i have lost three inches in my belly. What about you guys?
  4. It is 21 grams of protein per scoop.
  5. Especially the sweet ones, i bought some from gnc, gnc brand that is inflavored. Added it to milk and it did the trick. Thank gosh! So if your having trouble getting the flavored ones down, i would definitely suggest it.
  6. Oh and if you have experienced this, how long until your stomach got used to thicker things?
  7. So I'm on full liquids and lets just say its been a rough week and a half. On my list it says i can have blended cottage cheese, so i just tried some and after about two tiny bits my sleeve spasmed and hurts. I've noticed any time anything is slightly to thick this happens. I can't tell if its my sleeve during its not ready for it or if i just got full that fast. Anyone else have this issue? I'm allowed to start pureed foods on Monday and if i can't deal with thick things now i won't be able to then and its got me pretty bumed.
  8. I plan to make my own " baby food " but I'm pretty sure it falls under outer puree.
  9. I have gerd and my surgeon still did the sleeve. Just still have to take prilosec every day like i already have been. Maybe take it twice a day when it's acting up.
  10. Anyone tried it? Reviews please.
  11. I'm about a week and a half out. Was doing okay getting it in through out the day for a couple days then i just startednot being able to tolerate it at all. I have anti nausea meds but the taste is making me very sick. I give up.
  12. I'm supposed to get in 60-70 grams of protein each day. The past three days i haven't gotten hardly any. I puke when i drink the vanilla or chocolate shakes i have, and i don't have the money to keep buying shakes and powders to keep trying. Any advice?
  13. I'm so glad i am not the only one who feels like this. I have been a mess. I freaked out about blood clots to, i feel like if I'm asleep to long i will get one because I'm not walking every couple hours when I'm sleeping. I have also been extremely emotional.
  14. I'm about a week out. When i cook my fiancee dinner it smells good, but it doesn't make me hungry. I have pretty much no appetite at all anymore.
  15. For me not to weigh myself every day lol. I've decided to take measurements and my weight every Monday morning since that will be my week mark each Monday. But today I've wanted to step on it so bad lol. I had to put it away.
  16. Of getting a leak from drinking too much?
  17. Thanks guys. Just wanted to make sure i wasn't the odd ball with weird side effects.
  18. That's the thing, specially yesterday and today I've been naping on and off all day and its not getting better.
  19. I'm one week out and have absolutely no energy. Is this normal?
  20. You look great. Oh and Is that coco butter lotion in your picture any good?
  21. To have children.
  22. I haven't lost any weight this week. I am seven days post op today and am only down the weight i dropped for the pre op diet. Is that normal? I'm kind of bummed.
  23. The milk is a killer right there. Try other kinds of protein drinks. Try the isopure clear drinks. 40 grams of protein in 20 ounces and its only like 160 calories and no carbs.
