Always smiling

I felt the same way too! My starting weight was 182 after pre surg diet (pre surg 188). Surgery was 9/2/15 and am at 169. I was feeling bummed that it wasn't coming off faster. But in reality we are doing fantastic!! The scale hasn't moved as fast but my scrub pants are fitting sooooo much better!!! I think you're doing fantastic! Great job!

Going good! First day back to work today! I'm a MA so sitting in between rooming patients is helpful. How are you doing??

Upon reading all of this thread I just have to add this. Most of us have issues making good choices to begin with. Examples are with our health, as in food choices and when to say enough on eating. Most of us had surgery to help us with that. Eating less and eating better. So why do we find it shocking that some choose not so great things still after surgery? I mean YES it is shocking, but is it really? Think about it. If it was easy to make the right decisions on our health, would we be posting on this page or having this surgery? Hopefully with the help of people (doctors, psychologist, NUT and friends) we can LEARN that the choices we make can be destructive (eating, drinking not so good things). But it's all a learning process. Ridding ourselves of destructive bad habits and behavior. Just my two cents.

For sure see you're doctor. I would say milk intolerance but you're cottage cheese seems to be fine. Sometimes after stomach surgery the stomach wakes up and doesn't tolerate milk to well (at least that's been my experience). Call and see what your office recommends. Hope you start feeling better soon!

If you have concerns and fears discuss with your doctor. I'm pretty sure mine erred on the side of caution, as I would hope most would. But like it was stated above, research your doctor. My doctor had actually done three surgeries previous on my, so I completely trust him.

Taste just like normal chicken broth. Not as good as homemade

How are your suture pains doing?

Awesome job!!!!

Oh yes please ask! Curious as to other doctors take on it. Soft foods day on day 14, so two more days! I'm so excited that I went grocery shopping for such items! I'll be going back to work that day too!

In the same boat as you.

I found these and just loved them! Also got them in beef broth prior to my surgery.

I was sleeved the 2nd too. How are you feeling?

Oh that is good to hear! Thank you!

I'm 11 days post op and still currently on full liquids. I haven't had a feeling of being full. Is this normal? I eat about 1/4-1/2 cup of soup, or pudding or yogurts and don't feel fullness. Really wondering why and how this is.

Had my band out in February. Sleeves 9/2/15. On full liquid diet now. So far so good. I think I'm doing everything right??? When is your surgery date?
