Met with my NUT today and was prescribed appetite suppressant so we will see how the work when I get them.. thanks for all the advice.. learning more and more each day how much water is important to this process

I'm soposed to have 60-80 as well but I'm having 60 grams per day... I'm eating purée foods now so tuna salad and eggs or cream of wheat is what I've been living off of... also have a stall if the century!! Going on 2 weeks now did u experience that as well?

I do notice the same thing when I try to eat really fast and it's a struggle to keep it down

For some reason the kernels don't make it past my throat so I always have that left over particles in my mouth to spit out... I'm having 20oz of protein shake and 40oz of water per day

It's one of the large 5oz bags... I'm not cleared for this yet.. and I feel the same it's like it is so light and airy and crunchy at the same time.. how long does the healing process take? And I monitor everything that goes in.. I was able to eat cheetoes puffs a week after surgery and now this.. going to the surgeon to get some appetite suppressants hopefully cuz I'm way too hungry all the time... and it's not head hunger either... so idk

I'm only 4 weeks out and I think I'm eating way too much. Or at least more than the average sleever is eating like I'm able to have 1 bag of white cheddar popcorn and finish it within 2 days on top of my liquids and other 4oz meals not sure what is going on.. its like I can't tell when I'm full until it's too late and I'm about to throw up.. and I know I'm not soposed to be eating this but I'm trying to figure out why I am able to do so!?!?

Thank you guys for all the advice, however things are a little different here in the Cayman Islands but there has to be some loophole and I'll figure it out! I was almost about to give up thank u all for the encouragement!! I'll speak with my doctor to see if I can get an extra week of cuz I start my puréed stage this week. (Hugs)!

I am 2 weeks post op gastric sleeve and I am went in to work today my first day back but only made it 3 hours before I started to feel so weak I was almost faint... my whole body was shaking and it felt like I couldn't catch a breath... are there any other fellow sleepers who are chefs or have a job that is physically demanding that has had this problem? Idk what to do because I gotta make a living, this surgery was soposed to ease the pain of my back issues so I could work easier but instead I'm so weak I can hardly stand for too long...

I had my surgery done on Jan 26,2017 and I am worried that I might be eating too much... I usually have 4 ounces of my creamy soup or my blended oatmeal per meal and I still get hungry about an hour or so later and pretty much everything I put in my mouth hurts to go down.. anyone else experience that? if so how long before it goes away!?
