My bmi was just at 40, and i had no other health issues. I chose to get sleeved as a preventative measure, because there is, obesity related illnesses all over my family. My surgery was july 11, still recovering. So... I don't think you have to be "too fat" for this Sent from my LGMS345 using the BariatricPal App

I saw that i can make a smoothie with a banana in my full liquid stage. When it was time to eat dinner, the bananas looked so tempting that i figured if i can have one in a smoothie, i can have one if i chew it well. I had my surgery july 11... Any opinions?

Hi! I'm 6 days post op from sleeve and was wondering... What's the reason for the food stages? Is it to prevent dumping? To protect new sleeve? Sent from my LGMS345 using the BariatricPal App
