Good luck! After surgery I ate broth, sugar free popsicles, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese and apple sauce. I'm sure your doc or nutritionist will give you a list.

Woohoo, it's finally time! You'll need those SF popsicles because your throat will be a bit sore, but when you leave tomorrow, they should give you some SF hard candy for the trip back home. Are you having to go to Cincy to do it, or do they have a hospital they work with near you? Ricotta and pizza sauce is really good, tuna or chicken salad in the blender was pretty good. Refried Beans and chicken broth was good. That's all I can really remember for now. Good luck, you will do great and check in to report how you are doing!

Congrats and good luck. Most people start on liquids and your doctor should have given you a list of things to have. Make sure you read through all your paperwork.

Thanks! I've read through the paperwork several times, thanks for the suggestion. I'm an expert of the liquids stage, just curious what others ate during the purée stage. He gave me a list, but those aren't the only foods I'm allowed to have, I'm asking for other suggestions. Thanks.

Hey Creekwood ... So excited for you. My nut told me that any meal in a good blender will taste delicious. She suggested adding liquid to anything I might be blending. If you want chicken...just add some chicken broth and hit blend until Teresa no lumps. you're probably sick of chicken. Anything your family is eating can go into the blender. Its all about getting nutrients and healing. Good luck to you...I'm so excites for you. Can't wait for your first post op note!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
