Sept 6th. Eating light. No beef yet Deli turkey, chicken, salmon, tuna. Soft vegs. No breads, starches or sugars for me. Still drinking Protein Shakes daily. Plenty of Water but missing my Protein goal I am sure. Trying chicken brocoli cheese bake tonight. Good restriction. Haven't thrown up or had much pain. Did try a bean nacho (with chip) surely my imagination but felt it scratching even after I chewed and chewed. No more chips for a while...

...And how are you doing?

Oh yeh, down 13 since surgery but 33 since pre op.

I had surgery on the 13th of Sept. Still eating pureed chicken, fish, veggies and eggs. Yogurt and applesauce in between if need be. Haven't tried anything other than what has been on my Menu. Feel great and down 25 lbs. since Sept. 13th! Hope you are doing good.

Sounds like we're basically at the same stage of foods. I'm feeling pretty good but sure I'm lacking getting all my Proteins in as well. Hit a stall about a week ago & haven't lost weight since then. I'm down a total of 25 lbs. hopefully this stall won't last long.

Sleeved 9/4! Eating pretty much anything but very very slowly. Haven't had any beef or pork but have had some small bites of chicken and turkey. Today had Jennie-O turkey deli meat with a tsp. of guacamole rolled up in it - yum! But go slowly.

Down 28 lbs since pre-op diet. I've been at a stall for 2 weeks too, but I know it'll eventually come off. Averaging 700-800 kcal/day.

I was sleeved the 7th, we have about the same weight loss and eating the same things. I've been naughty and cheated a little, but I'll tell you, it isn't always a good outcome! I'm supposed to be only on pure ends til this Friday, but I eat turkey, cheese, chicken Soups, tuna and egg salad, ground turkey, tonight I had haddock, are you on myfitnesspal? M tekara3927, we could both share what were eating. I follow a lot of people and get awesome ideas. :)

Yes, I'm on fitness pal...I just started logging today. I will say, the scale hasn't moved in a week, but I have dropped 2 pant sizes since surgery. I must be losing inches & not weight. Trying hard to only weigh myself once a week. I'm no longer eating puréed foods. My stomach has tolerated chicken, fish, turkey, fat free cheeses, garden burgers, etc.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
