Don't waste your time with them. They claimed that the doctor never faxed over a prescription. After several tries & going back and forth I gave up & said never mind. They called a month later & said they didn't receive the prescription & they couldn't help me. Smh...

I was taken off & then put back on. I've lost 56 lbs. My surgery was on Oct 8, 2014. Prior to the surgery I was on 2 blood pressure medications & 1 diabetic pill. Now I'm just on 1 blood pressure medication. I have no idea why my pressure was normal after surgery & about over a month or two in it went up again.

I hope you get well soon. Your in my prayers... Keep us posted.

Surgery Oct 8 Wednesday Home Oct 10 Friday afternoon. Best wishes on your new journey.

Fine diva what do you put in your cream of wheat? I like cream of wheat but I don't like it plain.

I personally wouldn't try it this early. I would wait.

I'm having the same problem.., finding different things to eat. Pinterest has a lot of good recipes as others have stated. I boiled some shrimp & mixed it with avocados. I made it into a dip. Ate a few whole grain crackers. It was good.

Everything will work our. Don't get discouraged & keep the faith. You have come a long way. Best wishes to you.

Good for you!!!! Keep up the excellent work!!!!

Congrats & keep up the excellent work!!!!

I vomited a few times after surgery during recovery. They gave me several different medications through my IV to help with vomiting. I would contact my insurance company & let the doctor know what is covered & what's not covered. Best wishes to you on your new journey...

I take my meds crushed in unsweetened apple sauce as per doctor instructions. I also have chewable vitamins. I was told I couldn't swallow whole pills for 4 wks. Every doctor is different. Follow what your doctor advices you to do. Best wishes to you...

I haven't had soda for 3 yrs. it's really bad for you.

Kimchi, salad with grilled chicken, & a piece of a grilled turkey burger

I mashed an scrambled egg cooked onions & gravy for breakfast. Delicious & I was able to tolerate it. I only ate about half an egg.

I just read in my binder that I could've onto soft foods if purée foods weren't cutting it for me. I'm going to try some soft foods & see how I tolerate them. Hopefully all goes well.

Thank you all for the feed back & suggestions.

I'm tired of puréed foods already. I need some substance!!! I'm trying to find different recipes... Frustrated.... Are scrambled eggs allowed during this stage?! I want to make scrambled eggs & gravy..

Simply beautiful !!!!! I love the pictures.... Keep up the good work

I was sleeved on the 8th too.. Your on purées already ?! Lucky! Lol I start in 2 days .... Try some crab meat, tuna, or salmon with low fat mayo or Greek yogurt. Delish!!! Don't forget done garlic... I love garlic

Congrats!!!! That is sooo awesome!!! You must feel GREAT!!!

I know the feeling, I can also relate. I'm on full liquids for a few more days & Ive just had about enough of the protein shakes too. I can't stand syntax nectar! I purchased a sample pack & I'm sorry that I wasted my money. Hang in there. It will & does get better.

After surgery in recovery I was nausea and vomited a few times but they say it's normal. They have me medication for it. After that I was fine. Some people do & some don't. Don't focus on vomiting, stay focused on what you have to do before the surgery. Best wishes to you.

I agree with Kamp.. Do not let anyone discourage you from what you are considering. Who is he to tell you not too? He's not your primary doctor, he's just a heart doctor. Unless you have a serious heart condition I wouldn't listen to him. Find another heart doctor. I think that the only way you will have diarrhea is if you eat something that may not agree with you.
