Welcome this is a wonderful place to be...Amazing that your CEO has your back... You don't find that today! Congratulations on your decision...it is well worth the pain/discomfort....Good luck!

Finally yes nearly 3 n half weeks later..

What is a chocolate PB2?

I had 1/2 sf jello... Doesn't take much to get full... But it did the job... Thank u everyone..

Anyone have any ideas on what 2oz of late nite snack I can have.. soft/pureed phase still...

I actually have a fear of eating any treats or meals not on MY menu...I swear jus looking at food I gain weight...so im sticking to my plan...best wishes to you all!!

My Dr has put me on 4 weeks FMLA...only thing is I only have 2 weeks of leave time...smh!!

I would go back to liquids... It's safe n more tolerable...

Uh oh... My pouch is not happy!! Ugh!

I jus boiled some chicken and pureed it with chicken broth.. it wasn't to bad... But my goodness my pouch said even 2 oz felt like way to much...I'm completely full...now to wait to drink some water.. n Tonite I'll sip on a P.P. Shake...I don't want to upset my pouch..[emoji51][emoji51]

You will do just fine... Best wishes to you!!

I was just put on pureed for a month...and I haven't put much thought into what my first solid meal would be... Think I'm just scared... I don't want to over do it n gain anything back...coz all this pain would be for nothing... Im jus gonna keep it small n simple...

Sleeved on 4/30...Follow-up app on 5/16. Upgraded to phase II pureed/soft diet... My Dr. Said lots of protein. Tuna chicken fish yogurt cottage cheese eggs...protein premier shakes as meal replacements..so that was my shopping list...I am 30lbs down.. Still having pain in my lower abdomen..Doc says it's a muscle being pulled due to the surgery... Pain has eased up alot but still has me out of work for 2 more weeks..n I'm ok with that.. health first...I'm literally getting full with 2oz of wat ever I eat e.g. jello cups, popsicles,...Today I will attempt a brisk walk on my treadmill...doc approved... How is everyone else doing?

I had my surgery on April 30th. It has bin effective.. but has anyone have a burning sharp pain by their belly button... I have no stitches there so I know it's internal.. any one else going thru this and how long does it last and what did u do to ease the pain? I'm on a heat pad constantly.

Well I'm 11days post-op ..n that right side incision is jus so painful ...but I'm jus relaxing n taking it easy...still sipping on my protein water, water, broth n popsicles...trying to keep it light.. oh and I'm 23lbs down!! Woohoo! Only 80 more to go!....
