Was told cut carbs til goal 50 seems toohigh.

It truly was a nasty drink

Was straight up told carbs slow the weightloss and the reason we are doing this is to lose weight. Pasta is a carb

I was told no carbs til at maintanence i would cut the fruit for sure

Nah. I had little ceasars pizza four days prior just make sure that you r on all liquids that last couple days so your guts are empty.

YAY keep us updated

well i cant see your stats and your comorbities but it seems like alot of us would be dead in five years anyway from the cardiovascular disease or struggling with diabetes. Yep people do die definitely 1/200 to 1/700 nationally that has surgery dies. Those that dont there are many complications. The dead can't post here and the people with complications probably don't care to comment. However, remember why you started this journey. Is your comorbities at a head (diabetes cardiovascular disease severe sleep apnea)? What was your reason for starting? That's where you get your strength from. Now keep in mind some just breeze through the surgery with no complications but there is pain and struggle through the post op phase. Cuts hurt etc. Ultimately you got to be the one to decide if your situation is such that youve tried n failed to lose weight many times are morbidly obese and your comorbities are coming to a head. It's a personal decision and i hope you make the best one for you and your specific health problems (if any).?

I made this but it was unable to hit that pizza sauce taste

i dont eat past 6pm and breakfast is around nine so i guess right now i have the 12 hour IF going. I dont eat past six because i dont want to regurg anything while i sleep though not to IF. with the pouch havent felt the need to enhance the program yet because i am losing at a decent rate

speak with surgeon and primary care physician pale poop can be liver issue

My lastest recipe we are calling nacho turkito its ground turkey w taco seasoning with canned nacho cheese and sour cream as garnish ?

Are you sauteing the onion im worried about those fibrous veg

Looking for a good mock pizza recipe thats ok during soft foods thx

Well sounds like an amazing feat to me i cant eat that much. I broke the sex rule and fkd before three weeks im hoping its all cool in there lol. I cant say not to do it because i think u could have threw out the bun and throwed the burger in the magic bullet for puree. Nuggos i got nuthin lol. Just my pouch would start crying an ounce in with runny nose theatrics n all. Hopefully we will both get through this ?

Well im around two weeks out as i type this. There was some crippling pain, regurgitation, yellow pee from the difficulty of eating. I still got some open incisions but the good bews is the areas dont hurt at the same time lol. Hey its a challenge it is not easy peasy but then you step on the scale and almost like magic down thirty lbs. if someone dont list any negatives they lying. Lol just be prepared that its not a cake walk ?

Idk my preop diet consisted of many food funerals such as pizza lol. I didnt eat solids three days prior and my surgeon said it was good in there

Congrats on the lbs lost i too am shocked to see the scale result when i stand on it

I hope we all feel better by 1 month ?

I started puree around that time and felt a little better i just had my surgery 8/28 hope you feel better

I also had that pain with deep breath but coming on two weeks seems to have went away ?‍?

I like that crab salad pureed as well!

One of the other girls who had her surgery prior two days prior to mine hurls from puree and i do that from shakes. in support group we were talking with dietician how particular each persons stomach is and that we are hoping these are temp food intolerances lol

I posted a pic of my appointment so u can see exactly which ugi i had incase they are different but yeah wasn't pleasant. I also was told bariatric advantage shakes only post op but went with pp and both made me il so thats that lol. Hopefully everything is okay and its just a food intolerance and sometimes food intolerances are only temporary. The post surgery has definitely been more complex than advertised ☺️. Let us know how it goes!

hi. i was pretty il in the hospital and had that nasty test done. lol. Including pic for exact wording of test i had. you drink really putrid cup of yuck. They have you standing against this thing which turns out that it lifts you in air and goes in different laying positions etc. then when its done it returns you to standing, It was very unpleasant. Very. On mine it said i had an ileus which meant something was still sleeping or something like that. I had my surgery on aug 28. I was in hospital for 4 days and the nurse wanted to stay longer because of ileus. but the surgeon said it was cool to go home so i went with that and am sleeping in my own bed. I did alot of regurging shakes and weird noises were coming from my pouch while trying shakes. once on puree this got so much better mainly because right now i am not drinking shakes. i know i am below all my protein and water goal but i try everyday as a new day. i plan to try to get my protein mostly from foods. i am hoping my pouch will get up to 3 oz so i can eat 3 eggs which is 21g protein and that would help. i thought about getting some unflavored protein (genepro etc) and using it. If it is a shake allergy of whey try premier protein its milk protein. There are other options out there. good luck at the test it made me so much more nauseas. just try to hang in there and dont give up ?‍♂️

my advice would be not to stock up too much your pouch may reject it after surgery then your stuck with stuff you cant eat/drink. I would also get some of the extras like chewable gas x but usually you can ask for a script to go home with of it for when you feel the burp if you ask for it. Buy extra pillows if you dont have but two. Buy a couple for each side and a couple to make you lay higher so that you wont have to sleep sitting up on the couch. Some of us had to lol. Don't worry about packing for hospital they have everything you need there even mouthwash. Hair brush yes bring that if u dont want to use comb. Phone and charger necessity incase you get stuck in there for days. get a nice food pureer. i got magic bullet you need something to puree the foods in the next or third in some cases diet stage. disposable 2 oz and one oz containers make meal prep and clean up easier (a m a z o n). im sure everybody has a lot to add, and congrats. if we could keep it off on our own we wouldnt be this fat. if we dont have the surgery wed prob have the diabetes and other deathy ailments within five years. remember why you started. strange how the weight is just flying off... yet when we try to do it it was stuck and slow. it is painful though and hard i have yellow pee from not enough water as i type this and im tryin to get in the 64oz needed to turn things around. but lost two more lb today ?
