  4. Great job!! You're rocking it!! HW-317 SW-299 (3/28/18) CW-290 GW#1-250 GW#2-200 GW#3-180
  5. You're introducing food to your new stomach, it has to learn to process it. Certain foods may now cause the D. But keep your fluids up. Certainly if it's painful or bloody, you need evaluation. Watch for triggers. HW-317 SW-299 (3/28/18) CW-290 GW#1-250 GW#2-200 GW#3-180
  6. You are doing great!! My surgeon suggested that we could even purée spaghetti and sauce. No chicken though, too tough to process yet. HW-317 SW-299 (3/28/18) CW-290 GW#1-250 GW#2-200 GW#3-180
  7. Cottage cheese is soft HW-317 SW-299 (3/28/18) CW-290 GW#1-250 GW#2-200 GW#3-180
  8. Congratulations on your progress. I'm only a week PO but I feel fantastic. No probs with pain at all. Gas only bothered me in my back for a few days. I progressed to puréed yesterday and it was FABULOUS!! Lol. I too was a big meal eater, not grazer. I'm so happy I did this. Best wishes to you for continued success ?

  15. I was sleeved 3/28. My pain is minimal to none. I used 1 Percocet because I had an anesthesia hangover headache on 3/30.. I used gas-x 2x so far, passing gas really well. My taste buds have surely changed...anything with the slightest amount of sweetness to it, makes me gag. I drink 1/2 protein shake at a time, sipping decaf tea and room temp water all day. Usually I'm all about my ice water.... Can't tolerate it right now. Chicken both is my friend... So far I can't complain... I'm also walking a lot.
  16. The stomach pains could be your full signal. I get hiccups at my full mark, and gas pains.
