karlee0206 got a reaction from FluffyChix in Switching to soft foods
I will be 4 weeks on Thursday, so am still in the puréed stage. We do two weeks of full liquids then two of puréed then two weeks of soft food. I would ease into eating the actual chicken pieces, but I make a chicken salad and then send it through the food processor, still taste like chicken but just has a smoother finish. I love hummus and that was easy to digest and I can do scrambled egg now, but that one I eased into. And you can take Soups with chunks, but just throw it in the blender first. Also oatmeal is good, I have a high Protein recipe I make for Breakfast. So there are lots of choices before you are on the soft food stage. I start mine on Thanksgiving so I’ll be happy to get there.

I had my sleeve surgery on Halloween as well! Thankfully I haven’t had an GERD issues but they did start me on omeprazale and I will be on this for 2 months regardless if I have any issues or not. While in the hospital I would have hoped that they would have figured things out for you or changed meds, I’m sorry that you are going through this.

karlee0206 got a reaction from FluffyChix in I HATE I GOT THIS STUPID SURGERY!
I just had surgery a week ago so I feel you! Everyday I have to mentally tell myself that I did this for the right reasons and it will get better, because I know it will get better so hopefully you will eventually get to that point and see that. Right now every time I see real food I want it, but I know that’s only because I am on full liquids. Hopefully as you progress stages it will get easier, you got this!! -

karlee0206 got a reaction from Aodhanmom in Anybody NOT need an endoscopy before WLS?
I kept seeing people talk about having one done before surgery and wondered too if I would need one, but my doctor didn’t require me to have it or the sleep study before my surgery which is next week. I think if you have had bad GERD in the past or other GI issues then they would want it.
