I wanted to start a forum for members who are pre or post op and are 5'2" and under. I am 4'9" and post-op. In 4 months, I have lost over 50 lbs and would like to connect with others of my body type so we can compare stories and support each other.

5'2 and 11 weeks post op lost 40 pounds

Can ya'll give me some ideas of meals you are eating.

Can ya'll give me some ideas of meals you are eating.

I need help with that too!! I pretty much snack all the time instead if eating a meal..by the time I eat a little protein I'm too full for anything else

Hmmm Id like some ideas too lately I've been having soup with poached egg, tuna ( those bumblee bee sensations)

Congratulations too all of you!! I am 5'1" and barely starting my pre-op today. I am soo excited to start a new journey. I may possibly have surgery on the 21st of September. ????

Good luck!!! It's a journey but a great one

@wagu, I like your suggestions! I've been struggling to get in enough protein, and I know my calorie intake is low. Worried about my metabolism. I'm losing an avg 2 lbs a week and though I'm 12 weeks out in struggling to get off softs. Any tips? Exercise ideas?

What are you eating now? Also I'm 4 weeks out and on softs and mush and I am struggling to get protein in. Such a struggle. I can't drink Protein shakes it makes me vomit. And u forget my unflavored protein which becomes suddenly flavored in food!

My metabolism is probably haywire by now. I'm waiting for the doctor to say it's ok to exercise cause I'm going to exercise , some days I eat more than 800 cals and those days I really want to work out. Steady so far but ya know we are over achievers haha

I'm dawn I,m 5 "2" 220. Pounds surgery scheduled 10-13

@wagu, I'm still basically on mushies, protein drinks used to be hard on me too, I'm using premier protein 30gms of protein in one bottle. Sometimes it takes me all day to finish it (for breakfast and between meals) I use non-drowsy Dramamine and Zofran to combat the nausea. So sorry it's making you puke, just go to a different one or eat cottage cheese and other protein foods instead!

I've been eating s lot of eggs yum mm!!! And I can eat meatballs and stuff but they have to be extremely soft. I've also been eating guacamole! Delicious. The premier protein I used to love now it just tastes awful to me. I don't know what to do. I need to find. Protein supplement

In the beginning I felt the same way. Just turned on protein drinks the thought made me nausea. That is until discovered Syntrax Nectar. They come in different flavors. Caribbean cooler is delish mix with coconut water and cookies and cream mixed with almond milk taste just like an oreo

If u are on solids Quest bars are delish

See I got the cookies and cream nectar and it tasted awfully sweet to me so I couldn't stomach it. Maybe I should mix it with almond milk and add how that goes.
