Well hoping good news at dr tomorrow had to have 2 tubes of blood drawn today my eyes have yellow tint :(

I was sleeved march 22. Exactly 1 week ago to the hour. Let me say the first 72 hours SUCKED! Now that im a little farther out I am feeling better. I have had trouble getting all my liquids and protein in but I have found a trick that works for me. Snow cone maker and the bullet proteins. It really does taste like a treat to me. Good luck....it will be well worth it.

Good luck Nicole

Thank you so much will post after

Today is the day that I start up on Purees!

Taking is sloooow, with 2 very soft scrambled eggs for mini-meal 1 (chewed it a lot too). They went down slow and smooth, but I finished them all. I'm still trying to get an understanding of what "full" or "satisfied" feels like.

What are the other March 20th-ers doing for pured food and mini-meals?

I was sleeved on 3/19. I am on pureed now. I had trouble with the shakes, gag me, so now most of my protein comes from foods. I actually had a ground up burger for dinner yesterday. Added some mustard and low fat blue cheese. So yummy!!

Hmm. My doc still has me on liquids for another week. You were cleared for puréed one week out? Anyone else?

i was actually wondering the same thing Im from 3/18 and still have another week if full liquids before i can even think about scrambled egg heaven..

Also down 10 pounds in 9 days

Yup - Liquids for one week, followed by puree's for 2 weeks - just had .5 can of pureed tuna - and it was good! Anyone have good puree recipes?

3/20 sleeve here as well. Doing fine. Protein shakes/shots (what a fab idea with the sno cone thing!), couple of tablespoons of yogurt or chicken salad. Of course sf pudding, popsicles, jello. And my saving grace - BROTH. I hated that Swanson stuff in a box - blech. So I use Wegmans Spicy Thai Broth mixed half and half with broth packets - and yes, there is a lot of salt. Small price for me right now for the satisfying taste and relaxed tummy. Down #10 pre-op, #15 post. Only worry is no BM yet. Guess I'm heading out to get some Mirilax. Can't wait. :/

Go easy with the mirilax. I did about half of the recommended dose and the next day......BOOM. I went 5x's. I know TMI but I figured better share my story :)

Sleeved March 22nd. I too am having trouble determining if i am full or am having hunger pains still, or if its just gas! I have never really paid attention to all that in the past...i just ate till the good was gone. Please tell me how you do. Hope i gain a better understanding soon.
