  4. My doctor said nothing carbonated after surgery because it could cause complications. My nut said it can cause you to not feel as full as you should. I did try one sip of soda and hated it I didn't like the taste or the carbonation. It also hurt my stomach. Before surgery I loved coke zero and would drink a six pack per day. Tried the soda last week and I was sleeved on 12/31/12
  5. My doctor has told me that you need 60-80 grams of Protein per day if you don't that can cause hair loss, thinning hair. I find myself having to keep track so it doesn't. I have found this true. Hope that helps. Also I was sleeved on 12/31 and have lossed 67.2 pounds I stared at 335lb. My goal is 235 by summer so I can go to Disneyland with my kids, fingers crossed.
  6. Me too my cousin makes bacon in the microwave at least once a day if not twice. That and popcorn someone in my house makes popcorn everyday. Its a little easier I am only 15 days post op but its still hard
  7. I have a question I am 15 days out from surgery can I have cottage cheese. I am desperate only liquids for another week I don't know if I can do it
  8. Going out at lunch is the hardest because everyone is eating, I think about all of the fast-food choices out there. Will it get any easier?
  9. The smell if bacon still gets me every time. Can't wait to get soft foods on the 22nd.
  10. Are u sleeve? If so u are like me he did say dont drink if your not thirst but the most important thing was getting Protein 60-70g. He also has me skipping puree and continue on liquid because I can dring normaly. If i did puree i could gain because ibcan drink more I had surgery on the 31 of dec. The glue should come off 7-10 days if its edges look pink and it seems puffy go see you doctor. I did today he removed the glue over the infected incision. pus came out he added two sterile strips it felt much better hope this helps.
  11. Had my surgery on the 31 December. Saw the doc today he said because I am sleave I need to continue liquids only until I see him on the 22. Dang 2 more weeks but I have lost 25 pounds since surgery.
