I would like to schedule my surgery for the first full week in March once my insurance is approved, any other March Sleevers in the building?

I'm eating mostly yogurt and cottage cheese since I barfed on tuna (1/4 cup blenderized with nayo). I figured an extra week on semi-liquids wouldn't hurt. I eat 1/4-1/2 cup cottage cheese. Well, at the begining of the week 1/4 cup was all I could do but now I can do 1/2 if its liquidy. Ive also been doing 6 oz cup of greek yogurt 0%. That goes down very easy. I tried a 1/2 cup of lentil soup with 1oz of goat cheese. It went down fine but just didnt float my boat taste wise (mostly water). Hummus goes down fine but gives me heartburn.

I need some help menu wise to start getting in more fiber. I am on mushies/soft foods until my next appointment.

What types of food are you eating now? And about how much? Also how do you tell when you are full? I'm wondering if I am eating too much.

I'm eating pretty much whatever I want. I ate with the family on Easter. I had ham, mashed potatoes, corn, creamed spinach. VERY little amounts of each. My 5 year old ate way more than I did. Most days I'll have a Greek yogurt or a scrambled egg for breakfast, some soup or chili for lunch, and whatever I want for dinner. Maybe some salmon, chicken. Last night I ate some turkey and cheese from the inside of a sub my family was eating. I even ate 3/4 of a soft taco from Taco Bell one night. I know I'm full when I start getting an uncomfortable feeling in my chest and feel like I either need to burp or take a drink to get it down. That's my cue to stop.

Was sleeved on the 12th Ive also had no issues with anything I've eaten. I don't let myself get "full". I jst measure out 1/4-1/2 cup of food, or 3-4 ounces. I choose protein first, then carbs if I still want something but normally I don't. Last night we went to Olive Garden, I got the mussels appetizer and ate a little less than half of them. I think about 7 mussels.

This is pretty much how my sleeve is. I can EAT ANYTHING however it will only be a few bites! All my meals are on a saucer plate. I'm sorry ur having problems. I'm trying to think of reasons ur having issues. Are ur taking something for acid reflux maybe ur having a mild case of reflux and that's causing nausea. Just a guess good luck I hope this passes

Yeah because when you start eating food you might see an increase on your scale like I did!

How many of you March sleevers saw an increase in your weight when you moved from full liquids to puréed foods?
