Hi there, how are you eating already at 3 weeks post op? What exactly did you eat? Just curious because I had mine 7/12 and am only on puree foods that's all.

My surgery was on 7/13, and I had my first day back at work as a teacher today. It went really well, and I didn't run out of energy even though we went from 7:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. (open house). I think it helped that I was prepared with plenty of foods and I ate a few times.
We had a staff luncheon and I was a little worried what people might say because I haven't told most of them about the surgery. I ended up putting more on my plate than I plan to eat, and I slowly ate a small portion of those things. Nobody seemed to notice.
One more exciting thing for me: I went shopping for some new school clothes yesterday and I had to keep bringing back the bigger sizes for smaller ones! I got a couple of pairs of pants that were 14s and a few 16s and some shirts that were either XL or 1XL. The scale doesn't move very rapidly for me, so it was nice to see this NSV. I hope everybody else is doing well and getting back into the swing of things!

Countdown 🤸🏽‍♂️🤸🏽‍♂️🤸🏽‍♂️ for September

Surgery was July 23rd, everything went smoothly I although it did take me a hours to completely wake up from anesthesia. I came home the next day just a little sore and have them had pains. I feel good, if I didn’t have the incisions or pics of my stomach my surgeon took for me.. I wouldn’t think I had surgery. I feel very blessed that everything is going well. I am just sick of having nothing but liquids :/

I have been almost 2 weeks Post Op and I must say it hasn't been bad thus far except for the day after surgery..I am soooo fed up with Soups and shakes and the only good thing Is I am loosing consistently.I can't wait for purree stage. I find myself wanting to cook healthy for everyone and that is satisfying to me..I, also missssssss taking a nice relaxing bath.
How is everyone doing so far?

That one and the cinnamon roll are my favorites

Hi just had my surgery on the 27th!

Best of luck 🙌🙌🧡

I had my surgery on the 19th and I too was weak on the 2nd day but it does get better and you will start feeling better..Make sure you walk, drink Water and follow your doctor's order❤

Just had my surgery 7/15. Day 4 and surprisingly doing well. Fingers are crossed it stays this way.

Surgery day today, currently on my way to the hospital to check in. I’m a bit nervous I’m sure I’ll be more nervous once I get there and I have a headache right now :/

Just take it easy, had mine on 6 July and it took tell today to get on foods. Thirsty is an understatement! Drink and yes after surgery it did burn going down

Surgery July 19

Update on Surgery I had on July 19th.Not going to lie I was in so much gas pain and anything I drank burned going down..Was mostly on Morphine and anti nauseous medication ohh and sleeping.. Second day was easier. Was walking around, drinking more fluids and releasing the gas..I'm really thirsty but ill take it day by day. I was told my the team of doctors that it's best to have Decaf tea, Water and brooth until I slowly bring back the shakes.

I had my VSG on July 9. It's been going good so far. No issue with Water intake. Last Saturday I started pureed meals phase. YAY! It feels sooo good to finally taste some real food... 😋
This site is awesome and has many good recipes https://bariatricbits.com/bariatricnutrition/pureed-meals/
I tried them all! 😊

It does get better with each day! Had my surgery on July 15 and was questioning what I had done the first few days but feeling better and starting Full liquids today. Don't rush it!
