I was sleeved on 9/30 and since being on soft foods i also struggled. It happens. We need to get back on track. Focus on your Protein and Water and consult your nutritionist. Good luck!

mommy319 got a reaction from OKCPirate in 2 days before surgery and emotional
I was on edge waiting for ins approval but when i finally got it 2 days before surgery i was emotional. I was realizing that what i was waiting and working for was gonna happen. No turning back. Your relationship with food is about to change. Good luck with everything.

Go in to the clinic. Ask how many patients ahead of you and when they will send your papers in. Your approval from ins is only good temporarily so they may be waiting to send in your papers based on the number of clients ahead of you.

I order everything I can from vitacost.com and what I cant get there i'll order from Amazon. vitacost has good prices and i always use coupon code mobile527 for a 10% discount. The shipping is a flat fee no matter how much you order but they always have a free shipping deal.

Think positive. If it is meant to be it will happen. I had a surgery date the first day I met with the surgeon and after all the appointments and tests it wasnt until 2 days before surgery that my ins co approved me. If you have done everything required of you then don't worry.

mommy319 got a reaction from JudeaJordon in 5 Days & Feeling Blue
I am 2.5 weeks post op. I was fine the first week. I was took weak to cheat. The last couple of days i want to eat everything I'm not supposed to. I am on soft foods but i've had a cookie and a few chips and pretzels. Made an appointment with my Nut to get some guidance. I feel like i'm pms'ng and the only control i have is that i cant eat as much as I want. I cheated during pre op but i kept losing as long as I had my Protein and Water. I come to these forums now like an addict looking for just a little motivational boost. When I slip I try to get right back on track. After all surgery was a pretty drastic move not to use it as the tool it was meant to be. Good luck to all of us.

mommy319 got a reaction from buzzly36 in Question from a pre-op
Some things i bought and tolerated prior to surgery i couldnt stomach after. I have purchased multiple Protein powders i couldnt stand as well as broth that i couldnt get down. I just purchased a tasteless protein powder that mixes well and you only need 1tbs to get in 30g. GENEPRO from Amazon.< /p>

mommy319 got a reaction from LilyK in I need advice! on food / stages and carbs
Protein. Water and creamed Soups might be a good place to start. Next is mushy foods like eggs, tuna, fish and ricotta cheese. After that is soft foods. Go slow till you figure out what your sleeve can handle. Always protein first.

mommy319 got a reaction from BLERDgirl in No protein & no vitamins, is it a problem?
You should be getting your Protein. It helps with healing. Vitamins are necessary because you wont be able to eat enough to get the same nutrients.
