Try grits, maybe your tummy just needs to be introduced to it slowly. Just an idea.

I had my sleeve with Dr. Jacobs also, he is amazing!!! I really did not any any pain whatsoever only mild gas discomfort after surgery, when I woke up the following day I didn't feel any type of discomfort. Great experience. Good luck on your journey!

Thank you both! I just wanted to have an idea of where this is going

How was it? Did you find any particular food that went down hard? Any recommendations or interesting ideas on what to eat? I'm ready to be done with liquids!!!

I don't know if its wise to get the munchies with such a small stomach. (I'm not a smoker of anything but I've heard of munchies)

I'm only 9 days out, today I went to Panera bread and had a French onion Soup, I didn't eat the Bread or the onions in it, I took my time and it went down pretty well. I haven't had anything stuck or spicy foods but I'm really early in my process. Good luck to you! N go out have some soup! Haha

I don't get many cold days down here in Miami, but it sounds delicious! Haha, I did stop the protein shakes, I will resume again on my puréed stage by blending chicken in my meals, thank you for the tip!

4 months is early on too, but hey the important thing is that you're doing it! I think at the beginning the weight comes off on its own easily, once you reach your plateau then it's important to add a lite extra. I will def take it easy

This is weird for me because I used to like protein shakes before and now I even gag. Hopefully in a few weeks I can introduce healthy smoothies.

I have been taking those meds for a year, but I figured it out, it was me putting sugar in my plain yogurt lol something as small as that makes a difference

Each additional BMI point is only 5 pounds, gain 10 pounds and that's it you'll get to the BMI you need.

All very helpful, now I got an idea more or less what to do thanks!!!

That sounds like a pretty good routine, thank you!

How long after surgery did you start to work out? I'm 8 days post op, saw my doc today n he says I'm ok for cardio. (no heavy lifting of course) How long after surgery did you work out and how much time did you do a day, what type of exercise? Ect...

You are a trooper! Today I had a zip of a protein shake and started to gag!! I did see my doctor this afternoon and he told me that next week when I start my purée phase to blend chicken or fish with my purée so I can get protein that way

Thank you all for the ideas. I saw my doctor today he told me not to worry about protein until next week, that is when I start my puréed diet. I will be blending a lot of chicken and fish! Lol

Cool website thank you!!!

Didn't know that, will keep In mind, specially if I try to use in soups.

I'm not allowed yet to do smoothie with fresh fruit, I know that would help me a lot! Can't wait till I can though, it will certainly make my life easier!

Thank you both so much!!! I will def. try GNC and I'll check those websites out!

Absolutely hate them!!! I have a hard time putting them down.

How interesting, I'm thinking is probably my heart compensating for my fatigue, hopefully it goes away soon!

Well it's been 5 days already, and I'm eliminating fluids well. I'm not sure what it could be.

Only 4 days, but I only did 3 days because I felt too weak. I started then the full liquids for another 10 days, which is a total of 14 days on liquids. Day 15-28 is my puréed phase. You're doctor must be really strict, that would've been torture for me. Talk to him about it.
