I'm not an ice cream nut either but when its that time of the month I love me some rocky road. But obviously that has marshmallows and almonds so that's out for now. But maybe like sugar free orange sherbert.

I love my sleeve too. I can't each much here lately so in drinking my protein drinks. I don't get hungry much but my stomach growls something fierce.

Where can you buy melba bread?

It was on my list of soft foods. But your right its high in starch. Then why would they put that on there??? Under starches cooked oat meal, cream of rice, cream of wheat, malt O meal, thinned grits, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, crispy toast bread, melba bread??? What the hell is melba bread.lol

Hey had anyone tried sugar free Ice cream???

I'm so scared to eat anything right now because I hate the feeling I had when I ate the mashed potatoes. My chest and back hurt and it was an air bubble I guess. Going to try tuna tomorrow maybe???? Ugh I'm getting frustrated with not being able to eat soft solids.

Not able to eat mashed potatoes. Alot of foods not doing well with. My taste buds are like crazy right now. Not able to eat eggs,I guess I'm sticking to liquids or my tomatoe basil soup. Its the only thing that tastes good.

Nicole 2013, how are you? I was sleeved the same day. I'm bloated due to my period coming. No weight loss at this point. I'm sad about that.

Taking pics this weekend you can see a huge difference.

I'm 2 weeks out and I'm a little upset. No weight loss this week. I'm still at 214 but I think I'm bloated about to start period. Still eating every 3 to 4 hours and drinking my protein. My clothes are fitting very big. I'm obsessed on weighing myself!!

I'm out 3 weeks this wednesday and my period is coming and I can tell I want to munch more than normal. Is this normal?? Even though I can't eat that much, I'm eating like every 3 to 4 hours. I'm afraid I'm over eating??? Help

Had a first rough day back to work. Was able to drink 1 protein drink and my crystal light all day. I did amazing. I ate my tomato soup and my smashed beans.

No!!! Never again drink soda. It will stretch your pouch. Sodas are no more with the gastric surgery.

You look amazing!!!

So what can you drink other than water??

What really?? That's weird but I guess every doctor is different. The protein shakes are to help the stomach heal from what they told me and to give me energy because if not you will feel really tired.

Yes its normal. Get up and walk when you feel that gas bubble and drink your protein shake that will take you're hunger away or your chicken broth.

Yes it is. But did they give you morphine at the hospital? I didn't feel any pain until I got home. I just felt sore a little. Hang in there girlie.

Praying for you right now.

God luck to you Tangie I'm here for you. Good choice

I'm the same way I've upped my protein shakes and don't forget to take your multi vitamin as well and it helps that tiredness. I was the same way.

I really thought I would go back in less than a week but no you need atleast a good full week to 2 weeks. I go back to work monday and next wednesday would be 2 weeks from my surgery. You need time to heal and regroup and learn the drinks and your intake, because its truly a Huge life change.

Yes ladies its the Iv fluids. I was the same for about 2 or 3 days. Hang in there.

Glad to hear you're going to be better. God bless.
