    I’ve done chicken salad on puréed. I put rotisserie chicken in a food processor with some spices and chicken broth. Puréed that and then added Greek yogurt and mayo. It was actually really good despite looking a little gross. I’ve made it twice.

    I did! My first roommate’s husband was screaming to discharge her and left against medical advice.
    My 2nd (just a few hours later) was another sleeve patient around my age. No complaints with her. We took turns chatting, throwing up, bugging the nurse for meds...ha. It all worked out.

    Mine is on my right. But it seems from my search that it’s very common so I’m glad it’s normal.

    I’m on day 6 post op. Most days I have no interest in food and it’s a job to eat (drink). Yesterday I wanted everything I saw. I actually licked a Dorito! ??

    Anyone post op have all your incisions feeling ok except the one where your stomach was removed from? Ugh. That one hurts so much! I know it can’t last forever though.

    I can’t have protein shakes yet. I think I get that in 2 more days. Jello and broth aren’t appealing to me so I’ve been having popsicles, water with crystal light, Powerade Zero And watered down v8 fusion. I think I’m not drinking enough bc I’m scared to get my sleeve too full.

    Mixed feelings here as well! I’m trying not to think about the actual surgery or I may panic. But I’m excited overall.

    My pre-op appt is less than a week before my surgery. I won’t know about vitamins or anything until then. Kinda annoyed because I’m a planner! I know I’ll be on full liquids by day 4 but I want a list so I can have a few things on hand. Oh well, trying to be patient.
