    Soft Food Suggestions

    I'm honestly surprised you're still on soft foods at 6 weeks. I had a progression plan over the six weeks to move me to regular foods and I can eat most anything now (7 weeks) and have been on solid foods since week 4. I know every surgeon's and nutritionist is different. I can't do eggs either so I feel ya. I eat a lot of veggies, chicken thighs, fish Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Soft Food Suggestions

    I promise it gets better!! Just keep at it, keep walking! For soft foods, I loved refried beans with a little cheese and sour cream. You can Google buffalo chicken puree, that's yummy too. Or ricotta bake. I had trouble with creamy soups because they went through too quickly and I got the sweats and nauseous but I could do pureed veggie soup or tomato soup. I'm 7 weeks out and eating normal food. It feels like it will never happen but it does! I promise. (Still can't do chicken breast but love me some chicken thighs!).

    Sweats while eating

    Yes I get this. It was worse in the beginning but is getting better . I am almost 7 weeks out. For me it definitely happens more when I eat too fast. Or foods too rich. I get sweaty and nauseous and weak and need to sit down. It passes in 30 mins or so. It still happens to be fairly often but not with every meal like it used to. It sucks so I feel ya.

    I mean, I'm not sure there's a less photogenic photo of my face, lol, but this is my six week week progress pic. 25 pounds down from surgery Jan 27 (surgery weight 246, current 221). My clothes are all starting to get loose. But I'm living in leggings and hoodies for now. I don't want to waste money continually buying clothes. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    I feel pretty great too! Energy is great. My surgery was 1/27 so I'm six weeks out. I definitely still have a hard time eating slow and definitely can't handle any breads or things. A 39 year habit of scarfing meala down is hard to break haha. And I fricken hate cold food. Surgery weight was 246. Today I was 221 so 25 lbs down. I don't seem to be losing as fast as everyone else on her but I am weight training and do eat natural carbs and sugar. I'm okay with a slower loss because I feel the way I eat will be sustainable and healthy long term. Congrats on your success! Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Recovery time off...

    As the people above me have said, everyone's different. I work from home so I only took a couple days. I was also pretty fit and healthy, had no complications, and was cleared for the gym in 2 weeks. I was traveling at 3 weeks. Energy level was definitely lower until calories could catch up around 4 weeks. I'm a mover. I would have lost my mind with too much time. But again, everyone is different Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  10. Glad you're seeing the surgeon. I'd assume has pains because a leak usually comes with other symptoms like rapid heart rate, fever, etc. But always good to get it checked! Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Vsg or rny and why?

    Everyone different. I was in good shape going into mine, walked and drank like I was supposed to and had very little pain at all, home the next day and no pain in a couple days once the gas pains went away. surgery was an hour and a half or so. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Vsg or rny and why?

    I had severe GERD. If you have any reflux the risk it will get worse with sleeve is very high. So RNY for me. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Pooped from Pooping

    I got one when I had an abdominalplasty 5 years ago when wasn't going to be able to turn and wipe myself. And though I appreciate my husband and know that he would be willing to take care of me in any way, I wanted to maintain some dignity. So I looked into this, and we put the attachments on our toilet and it's been a complete lifesaver and a game changer. We use less toilet paper, I am cleaner. I feel fresher no matter what. And what I had surgery and I couldn't turn, all I needed help with was patting dry. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Get a bidet attachment for your toilet. I literally don't know how people or I lived without one. Best thing for your tush ever. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    How can I tell when I am full?

    You really won't at first if you're portioning and eating slowly. This is important to healing so follow the rules. But trust me. As you can eat more and different foods and move past each phase, your body will tell you. And unfortunately sometimes in an unfun way. Lol Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  20. I walked and walked and sipped and sipped and was home the next afternoon. No complications Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Depressed and GROUCHY

    You know what PMS is? Well now you're in its personal hell. Haha. When your body goes through trauma AND when there's a significant weight loss in a short period of time, your hormones go nutballs. It will calm down and even out as the weight loss slows to a more normal weight and your body is like oh okay cool I got this. I just put myself in time out and went to bed early most nights with a book and a heated blanket. 6 pm? Night night ! Lol Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    I'm not personally but know many people do. Have you had your labs checked since surgery to make sure your b12 and other levels are good ? I know this can contribute? Have you gone back to the gym? What are you doing for exercise? Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Gym

    As usual, every surgeon's recommendation is different and a lot of it will depend on you personally. I was allowed back to gym and lifting weights at my two week appt but I was fairly fit prior to surgery. And had a very easy RNY with no pain or complications. I would definitely defer to your surgeon as every individual is different. But hey in the meantime you can walk your tushy off. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

    Omg the giant horse pills of my calcium supplements are killing me. I keep gagging. Pre surgery I could take a whole handful of pills in one swig. Now I have to break my pills up to even get them down Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
