Isn't this real fattening??? Did you still loose after eating that??

I've lost every time. I only have 1.5 oz and I'm doing high Protein and full fats with close to zero carbs and sugar. That's what works for me

It's cheese, so there is fat, but you need some fat for sure. cheese is a better choice than mashed potatoes, cause there is Protein in it. Fat is not the enemy! Personally since my surgery 19 months ago I do not eat any low fat, fat free, or sugar free crap. I do all high quality ingredients because I eat so little of it. I do 2% milk, full fat cheeses and salad dressings. And if I get a latte, I don't get sugar free Syrup. I think it helps your body crave less. I made goal eating cheese at least twice a day! Everyone is different but this has worked for me. I have maintained my weight +/- 5 pounds for an entire year.

I ate a lot of baby food at this stage. The only two downsides were that they don't have much Protein and needed salt. However, they provided much needed variety. My favs were peas and carrots.

So today I started puréed food, this morning I started off with some apple sauce.

Every time I take a bite it hurts my chest and stomach. Is this normal? How long will it last?

Also how often and how much did you eat on purée?

Thanks for all the help!!

Yeah, I tried to eat applesauce and it makes me very crampy. I'm drinking some Soup but I'm scared I'm going to drink too much.

How much do you consume at one time. I think I'm paranoid about how much!

Also how are you doing on liquids? I can't seem to drink more than 16oz I know that's horrible.

When I eat soup I usually measure out 4oz and I only eat about 3oz of it. Just make sure you measure and eat slow so you don't consume to much at one time. I've eaten to much and didn't fell very good after. I have a rough time with liquids also, I am having to force myself to drink tons of Water but I'm really wanting to make this work and I've only lost 1lb in the last week so I figured I needed to focus on the water.

Thank you I was looking for this answer lol being a truck driver my resources and time on the road are limited and figured baby food might be the way to go with added protein of course :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
