  1. My dr said I could start taking Centrum which ones do you take show me a pic. Also what other vitamins do you take with them.
  2. Had surgery on July 25 and the last week I have not lost anything but still watching what I eat and just eating a few bites of my meals. I guess the 3 week stall is really. But i also feel that i have not lost much in total 20 pounds 10 pre and 10 post. Just keep telling myself this is more weight loss that i have seen in a long time. Just hoping that i start losing again and that this surgery was not done for nothing. Sorry just had to vent. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
  3. Great to hear and awesome no weight gain only loss. We are book on a cruise in November and i will be 4 months out. Was nervous,but now feel relieved.
  4. Just had surgery and have United also check i did not need all the supervised visits etc. But they did require 5 year of previous weight records. Also to make sure my dr. Made me do 3 months of nutrition visit plus some test. Paper work submited July 10 approved July 13 and surgery July 25. Congrats on the journey. Good luck with insurance.
  5. Just had the sleeve in July and was back at work 1 after. The first 3 to 4 days are the hardest. But in also have a desk job, not a problem.
  6. I am 11 day post op and also my emotions are all over the place yesterday was a bad day just was regretting the surgery and just wanted something to eat other than my liquid. So happy to have this forum since my husband can't understand he is very supportive but not the same. It's great to have others in the same journey as I am. I know this is for the best but when I see everyone eating food I am what the h#ll have in done. Looking forward for this week I start puree. Egg, tuna, chicken and shrimp salad (just mixed with a little.light mayo) is in my phase 3 oh and ricotta and cottage cheese. Now let hope my taste buds and new tummy like them. Keep strong we can do it.
  7. Yes somedays I have to force myself to eat well still on liquid but to drink my soup. Yesterday I had a bad day so over the liquid phase just want food. But today we went out to lunch and I had soup yes still would.like to take a bite of something else but i really trying 2 more day and puree here i come. Small achievements.

  8. I had to call the nutritionist because I keep spending money on all the vitamins. She told me several other patients do the patch so I have placed and order. Also asked when incpuld take normal capsules and she said about 1 month out, which I will ask dr. Next week for my visit.
  9. My taste buds have changed. Before surgery I could have sf jello or pudding, sf popsicles and yogurt now I can not stand them. I have try but I feel they are way to sweet for me and just do not like the taste. I am only 11 post op, and still on liquids. Hope my puree phase I can stand egg, tuna and chicken salad that I can have.
  10. I wish I could do that but everything to me is so sweet, sf popsicles, sf jello or pudding even protein water that I even water down and let not discuss the vitamins. My taste buds have changed. I am so happy the I can at least have choc. Premier shake since those have been my only source of protein. Can't wait for really food.

  12. My puree you can have tuna, chicken, egg and even shrimp salad made with light mayo. Refried beans and can not wait to try the bake ricotta. I am so over the liquid phase today has been a day I miss food.
  13. I hope so too. Today is a hard day really wanting real food other than soup. Only a few more day for puree.
  14. When can we eat corn?
  15. Memorial hospital both east and west have amazing teams.
  16. I wish I could have them.but my taste buds are bad the sf jello or pudding are way to sweet now and the yogurt just can't stomach it. I have gone thru 3 different chewable vitamins can not stand any, protein water neither. Just hoping to get to my puree stage because looking forward to egg, tuna and chicken salad. Hope my taste buds like them. Keeping my fingers cross. Good luck
  17. All plans are different I am 10 day post op and still on liquids phase 2 but on phase 3 14 to 20 day after surgery we can have chopped shrimp salad. I am also with you because I am a big seafood eater. I just hope my taste buds still like it, my taste buds have changed some of the stuff like yogurt and jello now I can not stand.
  18. Ok trying to get my protein in still on liquids post op 7 days. Just got premier water can not stand the taste added water to it still can stand the taste. What else can I try? Only thing I am drink.is the premier shake and that is ok.
  19. I am also a stomach sleeper just had surgery July 25 and its hard. Believe me I was very sore even trying to lay on my side was a no way ,but it's getting better I am able to sleep a bit on my side now but it I stay for a period of time it get sore. A few time I went to the family room and just slept on the recliner. Also what I did just for sleep time I took my pain meds so that really helped as well. Good luck.
  20. I think we need to keep it as simple as possible. Eggs, light mayo I think we can use a bit of mustard and pepper and make a mushy. And keep our fingers cross that our new tummy likes it Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

  22. I completely understand came to get some protein water at and they have a 1/2 of row just for all protein shakes snacks etc. Have not seen that before. Or more like it never noticed it.
  23. Just saw these at Walmart. I am not even at the stage but they do look good and seems like we can have these.
  24. All dr have different list of food we can eat. I am making notes to see when I am finally at this stage I can eat. Yummy finally some really food. Do not get me wrong I am not even hungry at all I really need to try to get food well soup in, at least twice a day and 2 protein shakes and it hard for me to do that. I can just have water all day and I am good. So maybe I am just over this stage. Counting down to next Wednesday making egg salad yummy... Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
  25. My nutritionist said not bread, potatoes or pasta so I would think that includes mash potatoes but since we could only have a few bites I am going for it. Also Wendy's chili just puree it more. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
