  10. Yes, since New Year, I've been between 199-203.... I'm going on 5 weeks out!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  11. I've never had that issue, but I also try to stay within my diet plan.
  12. My nutritionist had muscle milk on the list of shakes I was allowed, I did fine with them pre-op, but post-op I can't tolerate them, they are just too sweet for me
  13. It was as much as I could eat,I felt extremely full. I had just started purée so I guess maybe that could be it.
  14. I eat the fruits, but that's it, and that's when I'm on the run and need something to eat quickly Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  15. If I could drink water like I did before surgery, it wouldn't be a problem, having to sip it all day, it's hard to get all the water down, I'm almost 5 weeks out, and I have built myself up to 2 and 1/4 bottles of water a day so 36oz water daily, 6 oz of Protein shake, 4-6oz puréed food, maybe 1-2 SF popsicles so I think that makes my 48oz min Fluid intake, or close to it Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Noticing.

    I was at 221 today I weigh 199, I was sleeved on 12/8, and I don't see a difference when I look in the mirror, but my clothes say otherwise, I've cleaned out my closet once already, I still wear some clothes I wore before my sleeve, and I feel they fit the same, but my family says otherwise.

  17. This was Christmas dinner, I was sleeved on 12/8 and had started on purée 14 days out, I had 2 oz of Turkey, 1 oz of green Beans, 1 oz of dressing, 1 oz sweet potatoes, I tolerated an oz of turkey and just tasted the rest. My SW was 221, my current weight today was 199.2!!!! So happy!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  18. Also, I would thin the Greek yogurt out with my Protein shake to the consistency of applesauce Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  19. Omj!! YEESSSS! I was given Miralax, I've had to take it twice!! But it works wonders, the first time I had to take a dose that evening then again the next morning, just the other day I was having problems and took a dose and by morning it was all good I like Miralax because you stir it into 4ozs of Water and drink it, it has no flavor so it goes down easy. You a Nola girl?? Me too, now live in Texas!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Yes I'm a NOLAGIRL living in Memphis,TN I've been blending the whey Protein with 1% milk and it gives me gas so back, but I've had BM since I posted that, so I'm going on 3 weeks out I've tried grits and eggs yesterday and it felt like it was stuck in my chest very uncomfortable feeling, I'm on puree foods but idk what to eat that will be good to me. I couldn't do refried Beans before surgery bcuz of acid reflux anyway I don't like it, any suggestions? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using the BariatricPal App I totally understand, Proteins do that to me too, like they won't go down... I stuck to Greek yogurt and cream of wheat, now when I blend my meats I add broth or water, blend them well, then strain it... Not the tastiest, but I can tolerate them.... I'm going on 5 weeks out and find I'm tolerating things better now. Last night I went out to a restaurant with my family, ordered bean Soup, smashed some of the beans up with the juice and was able to tolerate it really well.... I also didn't use to know when I was full, but I'm learning what that feels like now. When I first started with puréed meats, I also tried to eat 2oz.... and realized I could only eat an oz comfortably. Each day will get better. Try eating just an egg, blend it up with some broth ( after I blend it, I nuke it a few secs to warm it up) you may tolerate it better... let me know how it goes!!

  22. I'm trying!! I'm so use to drinking my Water down, that this sipping makes it hard to drink all my water, because I forget!!! But I must be doing ok, I haven't had any issues Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
