Cleared for veggies pureed with meat up till 6 weeks then unpureed from 6 weeks out. Personally i did not puree my food - i just chewed really well in tiny bites. I have no problems with any raw veg (even celery). I have no carb restrictions (I didnt pay 17k to be on the Atkins diet). I am allowed 1 small piece of fruit a day if I want it

At this stage protein should be your main goal .... don't waste space with food that does absolutely nothing for you.

Itching is healing ... so I'd say not far off!! For me it was just under 2:weeks.

Have you ever tried baby food? It's nasty nasty nasty with a whole lot of crap and preservatives. It looks, smells and tastes bad. I have an 8 month year old and it's my last resort (for him). Besides from that, I was told no baby food as it doesn't have enough protein. Make your own - will taste 1000 times better trust me!!

If you dont want to tell the truth ...could you say you have another family wedding that day?

Mark it as junk mail and then it won't go into inbox

Only thing about it though and why most people try to avoid it is that it's a slider food aka you can eat lots and not feel restriction.

Started at 275 ... down 62lbs @ exactly 3 months out. For some weird reason I'm losing more at this stage than I did in the early weeks post op on full liquids!

Yep

3 months post op today. Down 62lbs and 60% of my excess weight

Face and waist. Legs and arms are the last place for me my two problem areas!!

How far out are you? Your body is in fat burning mode (ketosis) - that is likely to be the culprit but in saying that I do agree with what your saying about protein shakes - I felt the same!! It does get better further out though.

How you going with fluid intake? And are you taking your acid reducers?

How far out are you??

I was told 4 weeks but I think you will be fine

I'm assuming he wouldn't be doing either "orally" ... short answer is the reduced stomach size will have no effect on either drug taken. So basically - it will be no different to pre-sleeve.

Ecstasy has surely got to be better for you than alcohol ... or a cheeseburger I'm not approving it .... but I'm not disapproving it either.

3 months out and eat only meat and eggs with the exception of cereal for breakfast.

I have been using cocoa butter on mine once or twice a day ... but I think it actually makes little difference just like stretch marks during pregnancy ... it's all down to genetics.

Hey guys I am 3 months post op (8 months post baby also) and would love to see some pics of scars of sleevers further out! Do they eventually disappear? Before my op I really wanted to see some after pics so here you go newbies!! [ATTACH]8906[/ATTACH]

2 months and I added other veggies cheese nuts and LF dressing.
