@BluesLily: a serving is a half cup.

@Terry5502: Followed you! Tell me how the ricotta works. eggs, tofu, cottage cheese have been tasty but causing stomach cramps SOMETIMES. So frustrating!

@BluesLily: None whatsoever. I tried eggs, no problem. Second time, cramps galore. Cottage cheese, first time, crazy pain. Second time ok until half way through. Pain with peaches. Pain with Greek yogurt, but not light yogurt. Fine with Tofu, until halfway through second portion. It’s random and VERY painful.

What about Protein Drinks?

Had mine on 4/5. Starting to regret it. 😢
I am unable to move onto the purée phase because every time I try to eat something, I have wicked stomach cramps. Starting Week 3 of Protein shakes—I am so sick of them. 😭

Congratulations!

Because I want to LIVE as long as I can....

Mine was Monday, April 5th

HAD SURGERY MONDAY AM, came home today (Thursday). I could have come home last night. Stayed the extra day because I had wicked nausea.

I am having my Sleeve surgery tomorrow and wanted to know what the length of your hospital stay was following surgery? I was told by the Surgical Nurse that called me today that some people go home the same day. The Medical doctor that did my clearance two weeks ago stated one night and my surgeon said one to two nights. Obviously its based on any complications that may arise but just curious if you don't mind sharing. Thank you!

Hi - I am new to the site. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for March 10th. Anyone else here set for March? I am super anxious but also looking forward to it. I had a lap band in 2009 and a slip in 2014 that required removal. Curious as to what your pre-op diet looks like. I am on partial liquids now and full liquids for two weeks before the surgery.

Nice to meet everyone!

Also brand new to the site. My procedure is scheduled for 3/29/2021 (with my second COVID vaccination shot the week before 😅). I followed everyone with a Match surger so we could be a cohort! 🥰
