Fluid amounts?
How much are we supposed to have in one sitting? I'm scared of drinking too much at once and stretching the pouch! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hungry
I'm at three weeks and I do get hungry. Drinking Protein shakes and decaf tea seem to help. Also popsicles are nice because I feel like I'm actually eating something, not just taking liquids. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I felt like everyone was staring at me at the gym
No one's looking at you and judging. They're thinking about themselves or possibly worried they're being judged. Just focus on you and be mindful only of what's going on with your body. FTW. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Puree, blender and baby food
I tried the baby food and hated it. I have a stick blender I use for almost everything. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

soft foods stage
Tofu is great. Just get the firm kind packed in Water, drain VERY well, cut up and freeze it. I usually take frozen pieces, dry fry them and eat them with a boullion and soy sauce dip. Cauliflower sounds good, but if I eat it I can probably blast myself across the Atlantic. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

First puree meal, ricotta cheese bake
This was delicious! I changed it up with skim milk ricotta and lowfat cheese but it was still amazing! I had to make absolutely sure my servings were no more than 2 oz, though, since it would be so easy to go overboard! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Am I over thinking clothes buying?
I found I have a knack for reconstructing clothes. I take my brother's old jeans or things I find at thrift shops and make skirts and purses out of them. Tshirt surgery is also a blast and it's a good way to make stuff fit properly. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Anyone in the UK?
Where do you get Crusha? I'm an American expat in Cambridge and I don't think I've seen it yet! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Need answers..
Don't think about it yet. Just wait and see how you feel. If Tgiving is only a few days after your surgery, you probably won't be too tempted. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Am I over thinking clothes buying?
If you haven't worn it in more than five years, sell or donate it. It will be out of style anyway and you'll make room in your closet for newer, better things. Also thrift stores are the BEST. I shopped at them even before I put on weight I love them so much. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

When and how to add in fiber
You don't have trouble with gas? That's been my biggest problem since Day 1. I was thinking of adding Benefibre or taking Metamucil, but veggie chili is much more appealing! ETA - I originally said three months out. I meant three weeks. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My first NSV!
Before surgery, my "fat jeans" cut off my circulation. Last weekend I found I can pull them on and off without even undoing them. Off to Goodwill they go! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
