Has anyone had pho after the sleeve? I'm dying for some but am on the puréed stage. Maybe just the broth to get the flavor??? When can I eat the noodles and the thinly sliced meat? I love pho!

You should be eating the broth now. The noodles are a carb and you should stay away from that. The meat you can put through the blender and eat.

I drank the broth on Clear liquids. We go to a pho restaurant every week. I actually don't eat the noodles and actually don't like them so much anymore as they taste starchy now. I now eat barbecue chicken, drink a little broth and have 1/2 an egg roll. The pho has a lot of salt and I noted that I don't loose if I take in too much salt.

I had the broth only during the liquid phase and on the puree phase I'd have some of the meat and just made sure it was small amounts and chew chew chew. Still haven't had the noodles except for a taste.

Yeah you're right, lots of carbs and sodium. I think I will just stay away because pho is one of my comfort foods so I would rather just not have it. Does any one else get grosses out at the thought of puréed meat? The thought of it grosses me out.

pureed meat is just *not* the same. I would rather chew until my jaw hurts than to puree meat.

I never pureed it in a blender, just chewed the heck out of it, and/or made it in a crock pot type meal so that the meat was soft. I have not yet tried regularly cooked meats (other than chicken/fish).

I never pureed meats. I did get an electric chopper and chopped up chicken and pork. Then added a little grilling sauce to moisten it. I agree pureed meats aren't really very appealing. The chopper makes really tasty chicken salad and egg salad as well. You could make your own pho, there's some decent recipes out there that aren't as full of sodium and msg. I have gotten some hot and sour Soup from our Chinese take out, it was pretty good, but I am making most of my own stuff like that.

Pho broth has been one of the things keeping me sane through this liquid diet phase, you can definitely eat that.

If it were me I would just do the broth but I suppose if you are on the puree phase you could dump a little in the blender but I would just worry about really getting it blended though. THere are the carbs too but honestly, that this stage (at least for me) I have been getting almost NO carbs so I don't feel like that is the deal breaker.

So today I had pho. Well I drank the broth. Had about an ounce of noodles and 2 ounces of brisket. I left the bowl full of noodles. That's a first. I'm loving the sleeve.

      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?

      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
