  1. Thank you everyone so much for your replies! Last night was rough on me, I panicked! @Sosewsue61 I'm glad that's normal. I got worried that I might've done something wrong! I will try those foods and see if I can have them. I have googled lots of recipes and stand-alone foods but some I can not afford, so I gotta keep it "cheap". I will go to the store today and try to get all the things you named in your post! I usually manage a max. of 33oz, I'm trying real hard though but I've never been a big drinker, this is my biggest challenge I think. I was thinking of putting tiny water bottles in every single room in the house and take a single sip each time I pass those rooms, does that sound like too much? @GlowingGal It's comforting to know I'm not alone with the struggle and to know that you got an alternative already. I would love to try chicken, fish and salads. To be honest I've had a teaspoon of feta and tuna before and both went down well, the tuna felt a bit heavy though. But since the surgery I have never vomited or felt sick so I feel open enough for those foods already, it's just I'm really afraid that if I don' stick a 100% to the plan I will not lose any weight. Perhaps I'm just stressing myself out too much, I'm just really petrified of failing. @Tina Meinkowsky I've bought Whey Protein Powder online the other day, 2kg (4lbs) pack! It is recommended to take 3 spoons of it (which have 30g of protein in total) with water or milk and I've tried that, but he consistency is so thick and heavy that my stomach can't bear it, after a single sip I feel "sick" and stuffed, it's very uncomfortable. I'd mix the poweder with smoothies but it makes the smoothies thick in consistency so I struggle again. The best way for me would be protein water but for some reason that doesn't exist in Germany? Aren't there any tablet supplements with proteins? Thank you all again tons for your replies!!!
  2. Hello everyone, just a quick compliment to this website and its community. You all seem to be very kind and caring to each other, supporting one another during the time of sleevery. My admiration for that. I am 20 days post op and struggle a lot with my diet. During the first week post op I lost 22lbs. Since last week I've lost another 6lbs. Last night I weighed myself and I was a 134kg and today (it's evening) I've weighed myself again and I gained 2lbs (1kg) and I'm back on 135kg. This just scared the living heck out of me. I barely eat, because I don't really know what to eat. I struggle so much with protein-intake. I bought this whey protein for so much money (we don't have much money..) and I can't even get it down! My belly can't go with the heavy thickness of protein shakes, it makes me ill. I saw they have this awesome 30g protein per bottle protein water in England. They don't have it in Germany (where I'm from), it's frustrating. Dieting is hell for me right now, my body feels weak, I can barely focus on tasks. I drink quite normally, just water and tea. I can take in liquids max 800ml a day, if it goes well 1l a day. Are there any pureed foods with lots of protein? I google all day but it drives me mad. Sometimes there are foods listed that I can't even afford (like avocados, they're very expensive here where I live). I have no one that I can talk to about this so I feel absolutely left alone, I'm on the verge of crying. I don't know how I'm going to manage this. Liquid stage went fine but pureed stage seems to be going to be tough on me. I could eat pureed potatoes but then people say they have lots of carbs. If anybody has some heartfelt advice, I'd be more than glad and happy to receive it. Thank you.
  3. Also, is it normal that I haven't lost any weight in a few days/a week? Sorry for my dumb questions, I'm just on edge right now. Exams tomorrow, I don't even know where to put my head at first...
