Growing up my parents had cottage cheese on the table every night. I never touched the stuff and then in my early to mid-thirties I just started craving it. I don't drink a lot of milk so I often wondered if my body was just craving Calcium and it came out as a craving for cottage cheese.

I love it with avocados, or tomatoes, and am looking forward to it after I get to that stage in my post op diet!

I was craving both too. I'm 13 days out from surgery. The cottage cheese is great. I was wondering if it was too early to try avocados.

I'm one month out and eat both! They are Staples for me! I thin my avacado with lime juice as I can't have Anything thicker than Tomato paste for 2 more weeks. The sweet stuff is not my favorite right now.

I am cleared for "pureed" foods and I figured that ripe avocados are so easily mushed up when chewed that I tried them and tolerated them perfectly. Actually they feel great going down Elvira (my sleeve). I also noticed that I hit a stall after about 12 days of having only liquids post op.. then the day I added pureed consistency foods (including mushed up cottage cheese and avocados and Beans & cheese mushed up) I started dropping the weight again. I think my body needed a little bump up in calories. I am still only getting 500-650 calories a day and I'm full! LOL

yeah I'm so over the sweet stuff too!!! LOL I made the mistake of having a little bit of refried Beans with some avocado and sour cream all mashed in it last night.. only problem was that the Beans were too thick and it felt 'stuck' in my chest for like 30 minutes. Ugh. Won't do that again!!! I'm lucky that's all it did. I like what you said about consistency of tomato paste because that's about all I can tolerate right now as far as how thick my food is, any thicker and it doesn't go down comfortably. How are you doing with not drinking during meals? my mouth gets SO dry.

Don't drink w meals-- I'm still erroring on the too thin/wet food so I'm not noticing the dry. I add more moisture to make thinner puree if need be.

      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?

      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
