The whole point of the sleeve is that we can have other foods. While not ever eating them again is a choice, whatever you'd like to eat will not be denied to you forever. Even with the sleeve you'll still have to make choices about what you will and won't eat. Once you're healed and back on normal foods you can eat whatever you'd like. Focus on healing first, even though it's frustrating. I know while I was on liquids/softs I had a really hard time with it because it felt like I would never eat anything good again. Now, a couple months out, I can have a bite or two of whatever I want, as long as I'm focusing on my requirements first.

Keep in mind that WLS is a tool, not the magic bullet. Take the time that you are on liquids to really take stock in what you have been eating. Think about how you got to where you were that you needed to take the big step and have the surgery. Yes, you can absolutely eat what ever you want at some point, BUT most WLS patients will gain weight back. Most don't make the necessary changes in their lifestyle to keep the weight off. You've made a big step, but are only at the beginning of the journey. Honestly there isn't one thing that I could put in my mouth right now is worth what I will achieve once I hit my goal weight. I made a deal with myself, that if I hit goal, I would live a healthy lifestyle both physically and otherwise. Meaning I need to purge the things out of my life that got me here in the first place. I know how easy it is to eat a bite here or a bite there, but in the long run you are not helping yourself. Take this time to build a whole new you!

Hello Guys according to my opinion any strong material as compared to liquid that is used as a resource of nutrition refreshments is called solid foods.like Bananas/Carrots/Tomatoes/Squash/Potatoes/Prunes/Onion/Cheerios etc.......

      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.

      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?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
