  1. Hello, I’ve been on purée stage diet for about a week now and it was going so good! But now that I’ve gotten used to what I’ve been able to have it’s hard to switch it up and I’m getting bored with my food choices which has made me not want to eat at all. Any tips or ideas on how any of you got through the purée stage?
  2. Hi everyone, my names Myckayla I’m 20 years old my height is 4’11 my highest weight was 220 and my surgery weight was 208.4. I spent a total of 2 nights and 3 days in the hospital due to not being able to drink enough fluids. And now that I’m home I don’t have the feeling of hunger or wanting to drink has anyone else dealt with this and if so how? Because I don’t want to go back for dehydration. I’m also in the full liquid stage.
  3. I have to use a straw if I want to not take tiny sips and I know it’s bad but it works for me
  4. That’s great! I know how difficult it is to be a back sleeper and it sucks [emoji19] I was just curious because I feel like I’m ahead of a lot of sleevers ☹️ and I know everyone’s journey is different but idk maybe I’m just being silly
  5. Dang I was able to sleep on it right after surgery
  6. I feel fine aside from the muscle pain but other than that I feel like I could take on the world. Any other sleevers able to sleep on their sides or stomach?
  7. Yay another 30th sleever! And you had a drain? You’re the first person I’ve come across who’s had one. And I took my patch off I don’t have anything holding me back aside from muscle soreness. And premier is great!

  9. I should be on fulls til the 12th too but my booklet says 1-2 weeks after full I can start so I’m gonna ease my way into purée. Like I said I’m having trouble with protein and with purée there’s a lot of protein options so I’m just gonna do what feels comfortable to my stomach
  10. I am trying! I thought I was doing better with liquids but turns out I am not :/ my stomach never seems to be satisfied and that’s partially because I’m not getting the right amount of protein or liquids in but I start purée in a few days and I’ll have to see how that goes
  11. Aww thank you so so so much [emoji173]️ I really appreciate all the support and kindness I have received from you and this platform has been beyond what I was looking for within the bariatric/ weight loss community. And being active and getting in fluids in the beginning was hard but they’re the keys to my success along with getting in protein and vitamins. Thank you again for your kind and generous words [emoji846][emoji173]️
  12. [emoji1440]‍♀️ alrighty, have a great night [emoji1433]
  13. [emoji846][emoji813]️ you too! let me know if the cup helped
  14. Lol that’s okay sometimes the silly things work the best and I like the 360 cups because they come in multiple ounces I think it’s 4 oz, 10 oz 12 & 16 oz but I have only seen the 10 and 12 and the others online (: hope I was able to be of some help
  15. Whoop whoop surgery sissstaa! I don’t have a problem with my fluids anymore and My gas pain was very minimal but I took gas x to hurry it along. For a few days I felt like that too with the water so I bought the miracle 360 cup (for toddlers) and it’s so much easier and I don’t feel as much air. But that’s my suggestion another suggestion is to use a baby spoon to drink the water which is what I used the first 2 days I was in the hospital

    Hello

    Congratulations!!!!! (:
  19. I’m sure you’ll do even better (: I had just never had a surgery before and never had anesthesia so it was tough for me. But I plan on filming a video on my experience and what I took to the hospital today so maybe you can pull some info from that (: thanks so much for the kind and encouraging words
  20. Thank you so much so far I am great! Only thing that’s gonna take some time is for the muscle tissue to heal. And this morning I’m having a better time with getting liquids in (:
  21. Yes he did but I have a patch on so I didn’t want do double up on nausea meds. once this patch expires and if I’m still nauseous I’ll take my nausea meds (:
  22. Yes I have the only problem I’m running into is anytime I try something as soon as it touches my stomach I get nauseous. I don’t actually throw up I just have to walk back and forth til I feel better so idk I’ve been trying to incorporate different things I’m allowed to have day by day but it doesn’t help I go right back to the same thing which is ice chips :/ I want to have some good soups
  23. I do use Baritastic app but I just can’t get all my fluids I’m not focused too much on protein just because I’m more focused on being hydrated. Thanks so much (:
