Khloe, can you add me sabrinalgregory@gmail.com. Thank you :-)

Yes ma'am, just added. Please let me know if you do not receive the invitation.

Yes, I am thirsty as well and my throat feels swollen. I thought it was my acid reflux meds so I quit taking it and it seems better. I cant believe I am on full liquids for 6 wks post op. So ready for puree'd

Wy are you on liquids for so long?

My dr said full liquids for 6 wks postop to make sure my pouch is fully healed. It is very hard, if you count the 2 wk preop liquid diet that is 2 months on liquids. I am down 34 pounds since my surgery april 29th

Wow. That is intense and you are sure to lose a lot of weight. So after 6 weeks you go straight to regular foods or soft foods?

I go to the puree stage for 1 - 2 wks and then to soft foods. I have 2 more wks on liquids, so ready for some solids and something to chew

Hmmmm, well your new sleeve should be healed well by then but I was told it wont be fully healed until 6 months out.

You could add some things to your shake to break up the monotony flavors and change textures a bit.

In vanilla shakes add

banana (this gives a more slimy texture unless you use frozen bananas)

Peach with skin peeled

flavored kefir/yogurt

frozen jello (sounds gross but adds lots of flavor and smooth texture)

Hi Khloe.... Can you please add me to the April group?

Stalled Nd not happy only down 35.5 pounds since April 9th. I only eat 600 cals a day if that..... Help!

Same here Queen, I was sleeved April 2nd and I'm only down 35 pounds and I eat the same amount of calories as you...My Dr says it's because my BMI was on the lower side, but I still want to lose faster!
