Wow! 18lbs this week that is amazing!!! Way to go! Congrats!!

Glad everything went well!!! I too have had no complications and a very quick recovery.. I never took any pain meds when I left the hospital & only stayed at the hospital one night.. Congrats your on your way!! We are only 3 days apart! Mine was the 15th!!

I am a July 15th sleever.. With pre-op diet til now i have lost 15 lbs.. I've lost 7 of those lbs this week since Monday when I had my surgery.. & I too can't wait to eat a scrambled egg with some cheese.. Lol!

Sorry, anything you can mash with a fork*

I too am 6 days out.. Only cream soups I can think of is cream of chicken or mushroom.. To me that sounds gross.. Lol.. Mushies in my handbook says anything soft u can mash with a for.. Examples from my book: scrambled eggs, low fat cottage cheese or ricotta cheese, puddin, apple sauce, smashed banana, cream of wheat/rice, grits, oatmeal ( soup consistency), mashed sweet or white potatoes, puréed acorn or butternut squash, canned veggies ( cook until very soft and mash with a fork) purée peas, carrots, green beans, beets, puréed chicken, turkey ( no skin) or mashed canned chicken, tuna, soft fish- haddock, tilapia, cod, salmon, fat- free refried beans, blended light low fat yogurt or Greek yogurt ( higher protein count), condiments, such as low fat mayo, mustard, fat free butter spray, spices & herbs, hot sauce, & vinegar. Hope this has helped some ) I'm excited to hear of your journey..

Hope all is doing well who was sleeved today! My prayers are with u ) each day gets better & better ) yay!! You've joined the loser side!!

I had surgery Monday, July 15th 2013.. I too was scared and nervous! All went well.. Although I never got a pain pump.. My nurse done mine through my iv.. It's really not bad at all.. I've been home since yesterday evenin and I am only feelin a lil sore from the sight where they pull your stomach through.. Other than that I'm doin GREAT!! This website is an awesome tool for me good luck with all of your surgeries..

Wow!! Awesome! You look wonderful!

Well I'm on my way to the hospital!! Pray for me! They will begin surgery at 7am!

Wow!! Ok!! Well I'm sure I will see u there.. Didn't I meet u in my nutrition class?

Hi, I am also new to this and will be having my surgery tomorrow mornin in NC.. I am too a bit nervous with mixed emotions.. I find it relieving to hear some of these stories and be apart of this group. Hope your surgery goes well tomorrow as well as mine.. I have to be there at 5:45am and my surgery is at 7am.. (I am doin the gastric sleeve)

Thank you!!
