I had my surgery on Monday' date=' October 15th. Are there others who had the same surgery date? I'd like to know how you're doing. I had been doing great, but today was rough...mostly mentally... and I can't figure out the feelings in my gut. How are you doing?

I had my surgery on 10/15. It is very hard to do liquid diets cause u do want to chew. I try very soft chicken and fish to help with the hunger

PRAISE THE food GODS...I emailed my doc and I can try puréed three days early!!! :D

I'm going to make some tuna salad as soon as the fullness of my Protein shake wears off. I've never been so excited about tuna fish in my life!!!!

Lets just hope it goes well... :o

Worked my first "real" day of work yesterday. It only ended up being 6 hours and I was glad because I was so tired afterwards, but then when I got home of course I got my second wind and didn't get to bed til 10PM. Tonight is the true test I have 3 nights overnight training 10-7AM it won't be as busy lie the day so I can definitely get in my Protein & fluids since it's more relaxed. I just hope I can stay awake. After those 3 nights so glad that I have normal shifts :*) I also got in a 30 minute walk on my break. Found a gym close by, lots of shopping and Tony Romas when I am able to eat real food ;*) My pain is very minimal now, I feel like my incisions are healing well and for the most part I have no interest in real food which is good because I am still so far away from having it. Today I FINALLY picked up the house and did dishes. Now to relax before work.

I was sleeved 10/15 and doing great. 45 minute walks, starting a little soft foods, things that can be squashed with a fork but can't walk on land. No gagging. And I'm not eating because I'm hungry but to fuel my body.

Well, the tuna was overhyped, but it felt good to eat real food. I had some chicken salad about 1/2 an hour ago and it feels like a stuck little lump.

And lord knows I chewed it within an inch of its life!!

I hear that all food after being sleeved is only for nourishment it's not the same as before. Of course everyone on the liquid diet can't wait for solids, it's just too bad it's a disappointment :*( I still can't wait for chicken LOL

Good for you! I'm back at work and feeling rather normal. Today I felt hungry & I am so ready for pureed food. I have to wait until Monday, though. For now, I finally found a Protein shake I like and I've been trying different Soups (strained). Today I had miso Soup & it was delicious.

LOL! I love your last line. It seems to me like the transition to the next food phase, whatever it is, is rough. It's like your system has to get used to it. My first drink of milk made me nauseated, but now I can drink milk just fine. I'm sure it's the same with soft/pureed foods. Your system will get used to it. I hope it got better.

Good for you! I've been enjoying having time off from cleaning. My husband has been an awesome help there. So I'm delaying as long as possible with cleaning & laundry. We'll see how long I can get away with it. =)

I'm milking it for as long as possible!! LOL

Had some pinto Beans at Cracker Barrel yesterday and they were like ambrosia from the gods!! LMAO I ate 2 at a time, chewed like hell and all was well. :D

Had a few bites of scrambled eggs this morning (with Louisiana Hot Sauce, no less!) and they settled well, too.

I'm VERY happy about being on puréed foods...who'd of thunk it?!?!

      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?
