Every surgeon and NUT has different recommendations for food stages. By 21 days I was onto soft foods. Things I ate in this phase, fish, fish and more fish. It is soft, can have a variety of different ****es or sauce for flavor. tuna salad, shrimp salad, chicken salad with lowfat mayo. cheese. The little pre-packaged reduced fat string cheeses are easy to take a long for a snack and a quick hit of Protein. Cottage cheese, yogurt, Chunkier Soups. Chicken (dark meat is easier to eat than white), cut into tiny pieces and chewed really well.

Here are two links to websites with food ideas and recipes for different stages:

I have a Protein Shake every morning for Breakfast because I know it will go down and will guarantee me 30 grams of protein to get started. Plus, I am not a big egg fan. I'd much rather have Cereal or oatmeal in the morning, but since they do not offer any protein, I have the shake instead.

Good luck. Don't be afraid to try new foods once they are approved in your surgeons recommendations. Just go really slow, chew really well and listen to your body.

      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...

      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
