dacosta.juli reacted to dupexi in carbs.. when are they allowed?
I'm 3 weeks out on Thursday, I've been mainly still on Protein Shakes and broth, but I've added some cottage cheese successfully. Tried a soft egg, no dice. Thinking about trying some yogurt.

My doc says no potatoes or corn or carbs (doesn't include healthy beans) till goal. Carbs slow or stop weight loss

I was able to have potatoes during pureed stage. I use the tiny Yukon gold potatoes an boil and mash them myself; no butter or milk and I limit myself to an ounce or less and only after my Protein. As for Pasta, rice and bread..none of that until 6 months post-op per my instructions.

I've been living on mashed potatoes and Protein powder during my puree stage. In addition to tuna and refried Beans.
I probably will not be eating mashed potatoes after I am able to eat other foods.

I did mix unflavored Protein Powder in mashed potatoes during my pureed stage. But overall, I avoided all white carbs (potatoes, rice, bread) until I was at goal. And even now they are a rare thing....maybe 2-3 times/month. (but ask me again after this Thursday ???? )

I was sleeved 9/23 ,I've had mashed.potatoes a couple of times, couple of bites, try to get in Protein first, but still allow for couple bites of starch once a week maybe. I have found at 8 weeks out I can eat most anything but not a lot of any thing

So, how was your tummy at 3 weeks? I'm having an awful time with mine. Nothing seems to set well except liquids. I can deal with the discomfort if I have hope that I will be able to eat most anything at 8 wks. -

Yes give it time, your tummy needs at least 6 weeks to recover..Don't push much at 3 weeks. I was JUST trying soft at 3 weeks

I've had potatoes alot, when my sleeve has been angry they are one of the few things that I have handled,with no problems at all. But like all things now, eat in moderation -

It depends on your medical team's recommendations. The rule of thumb is Protein, then veg, then carbs but many are allowed mashed potatoes once they get to the soft food stage.
