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 :)

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
