I think everyone adjusts differently. I’m now off the puree diet and onto the sort diet and feel like I’m eating lots of potato and cheese. It’s weird because usually this would be foods I would avoid on diets. I get between 600-800 calories a day with the help of baby Bells (high in protein), a protein shake and a protein yoghurt. I’m meant to be working to 50gs of protein for dinner but am finding a meal difficult because it’s always protein first and that means I don’t get to the greens and veg. I’ve been quite active, swimming 3 times a week, 40-60 lengths a time so my nutritionist said I can eat more to ensure I have energy. I’ve just come out of the slump 5th week slump, and am loosing again which means it’s gone from water weight to burning actual fat which is great. I was a bit worried about the pause in weight loss. is anyone else struggling to get to eating lots of greens and salads? So over eating yoghurts, smoothies and high protein cheese with potato. I want to feel like it’s a healthier plate. Can anyone eat a salad yet? My op was on the 9th of June

Thanks for your response. What protein have you started with? I made the mistake of mixing protein powder with high protein milk powder and it was SO thick. What has worked for you? I’m thinking of trying a 500ml shake with 50g in there. I’m glad I’m not the only one burping! I’m not a natural burper so it’s actually tricky for me to burp without wrenching. Literally have reverted back to a baby with my poor boyfriend burping me! How is your energy?

I had my surgery on June the 9th and was so excited and feeling really strong. Since surgery I have been knocked sideways and am in such a funk. All food makes me feel sick, I can barely drink fluids and I’m feeling panicked that this will go on forever. I can’t stop burping and wrenching. Is there anyone out there who wants to buddy up and help keep each-other stay positive? Any tips welcome

Surgery was on the 9th of June and I am in shock!! Anyone else had it and is struggling with food? I’m unfortunately feeling sick with everything and am feeling low. Any positive tips to get over the first few days are very much welcomed xxx
