  2. Now it worked but they are sideways! Booo!
  3. First picture was 4 days pre op and second picture was just now (3 weeks and 2 days post op).
  4. I didn't even think about eating 1 week post op! I would have been scared to death!
  5. Sleeved 5/22 SW:246 DOS:234 CW:214 I am 5'7" and have lost 32 lbs since my preop diet started 4 weeks ago.
  6. I also have a channel click link below!
  7. I am almost 3 weeks out and I can usually eat 4ozs.
  8. My diet is First 2 days Clear liquids Day 3-13 full liquids Day 14-30 purée/blenderized Day 31-45 soft diet And I am guessing after that onto regular food as tolerable!
  9. I am almost 3 weeks out. I eat an egg beater mixed with cottage cheese for breakfast, 1/2 cup cottage cheese and 1/4 cup homemade chicken salad for lunch and 1/2 cup of beans for dinner. That normally puts me super close to 60g of protien and if I need more I will have a small shake or isopure.
  10. I hated the pain meds they made me do nothing but sleep! A hearing pad was my BFF!
  11. I also have a video blog in YouTube. Link in signature.
  12. It is crazy how everyone is different. I can drink like a champ and eat most things allowed by my diet. Usually I eat between 1/4-1/2 cup per meal.
  13. Sleeved 5/22 feeling great. Down 18 since surgery and 28 total.
  14. How long post op before you moved to soft food stage. For me it is 6 weeks!
  15. Surgery date 5/22 Starting weight-246 Weight day of surgery-234 Weight today-218 28lbs total lost
  16. I am starting to hate food. Nothing I can eat tastes that great! I made 2 recipes (ricotta bake and buffalo chicken) and they both made me sick. I think I am going back to full liquids for a few days. I can't believe this but the thought of any food right now makes me ill!
  17. Thanks everyone! I am getting fluids in no problem! Yesterday I finally for over 60g of protien (1st day in purée)! I am feeling good! Clothes are already getting loose but that darn scale is killing me. Maybe I will make my husband hide it from me. I just don't want to fail! I will continue doing 100% because I didn't do this for nothing!
  18. I am 2 weeks post op and following my post op instructions! Why did I go up 4 lbs a few days ago and still not back down. I want to curl up and cry! Starting weight-246 Surgery day-234 2 weeks post op-220
  19. I take a Equate (Walmart braand) chewable complete multivitamin and it goes down fine. No problems.
  20. My doc is very cautious! Originally he said 6 weeks for anything but walking. He gave me the okay because I was feeling so good but made sure to tell me only treadmill and elliptical!
  21. I will be 2 weeks post op tomorrow and plan on going to the gym to run and elliptical, my doc said next week last Thursday so I guess I am good. When did you get the go ahead?
