I couldn't do cream of wheat...I did blend a lot of things. but my favorite is taco bell refried Beans and cheese with mild sauce ....they sell it by the can at Wal Mart and I bought the taco bell resterant sauce. and added 2% cheese. yummy. I also liked the small curd low fat cottage cheese with a little black pepper on it. Mashed avocado was a change. I blended up tortilla Soup OMG it was divine. Good luck. I got to start soft foods yesterday. Its so nice to chew chew chew.

I am on stage 4 and I am 15 days out. It is weird because I can eat regular foods now besides veggies and grains of course. My first 3 days were Clear Liquids. Stage 2 was up to 7 days at full liquids. Stage 3 soft/ purée foods at 1-2 weeks. Stage 4, solid proteins.. I can't handle a lot.. Best food for me is snow or king crab. My belly loves that! Lol.

it's so funny how each doctor is different. I was sleeved 2/11 and I have to do full liquids until 3 weeks before I start puréed. Is it sad I'm counting down the days to cream of wheat/malt o meal? lol

I have to wait one week from surgery well actually from when I was discharged to move up in foods. I'm on clear liquids until Thursday then I can add eggs, refried Beans, etc. I'm starting to get actual hunger here bc Jello, broth, and Popsicles aren't cutting it anymore.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
