I found full liquids to be really tough, because it felt like everything I could eat was sweet-jello, pudding, Popsicles, Protein shakes... I wanted something savory so bad! Thankfully puréed foods have been much easier to handle and allow for much more variety! Hang in there!!!

I took some pinto Beans added chicken broth blended and strained it. I actually started purée earlier than my doctor ordered but I needed something. Started w a scrambled egg and are it very slowly. The liquids were definitely the hardest phase. I REALLY struggled w it so I can relate. Luckily I had no issues w nausea gas etc but I felt ok moving ahead a couple of days early.

Liquid is a tough stage. I'm on puréed and I can have cottage cheese, tuna fish, chicken salad, mashed potatoes. Soups with soft veggies, and scrambled eggs.. It's a lot better than the liquid stage. I have ate too fast and got sick so it's important to remember to eat slow and space it out.

So do you purée all that up before you eat it ? I'm not sure i can stomach blended up meats-- are they bad ?

      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.

      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!!
