    Water!

    The cauliflower soup is a blended cream soup, the cabbage soup is a clear broth soup and the cabbage leafs are pureed. So is the tomato soup. And the onion soup. I also can eat Beans as long as they are also pureed. I am allowed several choices of pureed vegetables such as carrots as well and Beets. Just not corn. And like I said all my soups are homade so I do not have the sugar or anything else in it. I am also allowed skinless fruits. Maybe your doctor is just not like my doctor. I do not know what to tell you. I did not know that my diet was diffraction than others. All of the above are included in my soft foods menu. I wish I knew how to take a picture of my menu and post it from here but everytime I take a picture I lose the thread. I don't know if my diet is different than the sleeve I wasn't told. Or if it has just changed since you had surgery. But I can assure you I am not the kind of person who would eat anything at all that I can't have. I am the person who will not eat something even if I am allowed if I know it is not that good for you. Like once carbs like Rice and Pasta and stuff like that. I am also allowed Melba toast and crackers. Right now but I do not eat them ( I don't know why that is considered soft food? ) but it is on my diet for soft food until 6 weeks. I will take a picture of the menu. To have it on here incase you wish to see that my advise giving to others is because that is what I been told to eat.

  4. The sugar free Slurpee comment was to Roach. Not you. sorry I am new to all this posting I do not know how to do the quotes feature. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App
  5. Jess9395 Lot of information on Google if you want to research it. I was just trying to tell the poster what my professional told me. Reason he even told me was because I asked if I could have a straw in the hospital. And the nurse told me I couldn't have it because of my surgery so when my doctor came by I asked him why. He told me what I told the poster. You all can do whatever you want and he said this only because I have the gastric bypass pouch not the sleeve. Thanks for your reply.

    Question?

    Reinventing wow I am so sorry that happened to you. I know how bad it hurts. I have a very hard time walking as well especially if the pill wears off. One day it took me 5 times to step up into the truck I just kept falling back. The vibration of my foot hitting the floor hurts. I am really hoping this is not long term. I love to run in 2013 I did my first Marathon. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App

    Question?

    @@Valentina I feel bad for you. 18 months scares me. I do not like the oxy either the Lyrica is suppose to help the nerves but it only helps take the edge off. Everyone is trying to get me to take medical marijuana but then I will really be high. I am really trying to not take the oxy. Thanks for telling your story. I heard it is common with any surgery.

    Question?

    Proud2beme I had gastric bypass not the sleeve. That is interesting about the diabetes. My blood test always came out that I was semi borderline. But I don't have it yet in the hospital twice they gave me insulin. And I told the nurse I'm not diabetic. When I asked the doctor about it he said it was a small amount and the body gets stressed and sugar Rises. So it is strange you said that. Thanks something to look into.

    Question?

    Inner surfer When I had an emergency hysterectomy they cut me completely from hip to hip and I had the numbness without the pain for many years. I am glad you don't have really bad pain. The doctor told me it happens but will go away. I hope soon. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App

    Jess9395 the Lyrica doesn't make me high the oxycodone makes me high. And I hate it. I will ask for other options. Thank you. I really hope the pain stops soon as you know it is horrible pain. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App
  14. @@Roach bug What about sugar free Slurpees? I don't know if that would be ok or not. But I know they exist. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App
  15. Jess9395 Please do what ever you want to do. My doctor is who I will listen to him and my nutritionist. I was just telling the poster what I was told when I had surgery. I agree the article did not say anything about ulcers. But again that is what I was told by my doctor. I do not have heartburn either never have yet he told me to take the medication anyways to prevent ulcers. Maybe surgeon are different. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App
  16. How far out are they? There exception In everything. If a person sets themselves up to fail they will. Some people love food more than anything else. The straw thing is only about gastric bypass people not the sleeve. I have 2 friends that are married one had the sleeve one had gastric bypass the one with the sleeve can eat small portions of anything and she eats badly like she always did. Her husband trys to do the same and gets so sick. He regrets having gastric bypass because he wants to be able to be able to eat some of his old favorites they both are a year in just since December. She won't even go to the doctor's appointments anymore because she is not following orders and is gaining. He has lost almost 200 pounds. So I guess I was judging the sleeve by them. And they are the reason I decided to have the gastric over the sleeve even though my doctor really wanted to sleeve me. Both will work if you stay dedicated one of my sisters is 15 years out. If you want to be successful you will be. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App

    More critical of facial features after WLS?

    My sisters had the surgery years ago and Thier faces looked like they lost a lot of weight. But as time went by the skin started to fit the face more like it glued itself back I hope that makes sense. You are lovely now and once everything has time to catch up. You will see a big difference. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App
  18. Lipstick lady I never ever said tortilla Soup was good for anyone 2 weeks out of surgery I said that is how I lost 40 pounds pre-op and that when I can eat. All those items in my soup I can show you the papers and menu's my nutritionist gave me. And fact you would say that I would in courage a person to eat anything but soft pureed food is just crazy. And I stand by my sleeve comment read all the comments about some of these that can eat chocolate,donuts and cake! Sugar would make a gastric bypass person sick. We can't do sugar. And also read how many go from the sleeve to gastric bypass. That was my point. And my link proved what was needed proved that a gastric bypass person can not drink soda or sip from a straw and it tells why. And I was wrong it is not temporary it is ever. You both are giving them the wrong advice. They can ask Thier doctor or Google it! Please do not miss quote me. I do Intend to go back to my black bean chicken and hominy soup topped with avocado and either raw cabbage shredded or baked tortilla strips (corn not flour) as soon as I am free to eat what I want. It worked for me this is me in 2013 I have not been fat long. . Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using the BariatricPal App
  19. Lipstick lady I said what?? That I have problems with drinking? I just proved she was wrong. I'd like to know what other things you are speaking of? And she cussed at me. But that is ok?

  21. Vsgamn2014 funny I felt the same about you. I listen to my doctor it gets air into your pouch. You didn't even have gastric bypass you have the sleeve. And I do know it is easier to cheat on the sleeve not saying you will. I'm not saying you can't use a straw ever but not at the beginning. And I just had surgery and classes so I know more than you think. Anyway. I am answering her question. Please leave me out of your Know it all. Wannabe Dr BS. I respect that you had surgery before me but we do not even have the same surgery. Thanks BTW my sisters had surgery before you and they don't act like they know everything.

    Week 3 and 4 food options

    I was told to eat soft boiled eggs I don't even know what that is. I was told that scrambled eggs wasn't wet enough so I take one egg and 1 tablespoon of cottage cheese the small curds. And scramble it. One of my favorite things to eat besides Soup I have not ate any potatoes I know we're allowed them but it's a carb I just can't do it. I had my surgery April 20th. Yesterday I made a killer chili with a different kind of Beans all dried that I had to make myself and I used chorizo soy for the meat. Everyone loved it. It would be really good and eggs also. I do not eat seafood of any kind. We can also have thin deli meats. I have made homemade cauliflower soup onion,soup tomato soup,and cabbage soup but I love soup only homemade soup.
