June 18 surgery....pork, chicken, chilli, ...cooked in cockpot ahead of time pureer and Froze in ice trays myself and labeled freezer bags in case the smell of cooking got to me after surgery...so i just microwave 1 cube is 1oz the first week and 2 cubes is 2 oz the second week at meals with 1oz of fruits. I just added ad i could slowly...The veggies i just couldnt eat once pureer could look at them so could eat..Also i get in 6 oz yogart and 8 oz 1%milk with my shakes. I mix up times for meals. Breakfast at lunch breakfast at dinner ect. Plus my fluids about 70 daily, some sa some God i switch it up often and it works for me...i always had à water bottle by me, but I have to say i made many changes months before surgery, not eatting and drinking together, carry Water bottles. No coffee and cokes, sugar and salts...no fried foods..i just wanted the best chance i could at transitioning i could do. I think this really helps "me" now....

I was sleeved June 25th. I am on pureed foods. Went out to eat at a Mexican restaurant ...first time out to eat since surgery. Had refried Beans and guacamole. It tasted good but I didn't eat much...was really worried about portion size. I am allowed crispy crackers on the phase too so I ate 3 tortilla chip.

I was also sleeved on June 25th. I do two clear liquid shakes a day plus about 1/4 cup of soft food. So far I have had yogurt, part of a scrambled egg, refried Beans twice, egg flower Soup. Tonight I went crazy and paid for it. I made an oopsie roll and put 1/2 a small meatless meatball with about a table spoon of spaghetti sauce and mozzarella. I could only eat half of that and was in terrible pain. I should have stopped at a quarter of it.

I am not getting the Proteins in, but I do not drink shakes. I average abut 40g Protein. If I could stomach just ne shake, I would meet my goal. But no thanks.

i am having a hard time even looking at the Protein Shakes any more. i try to eat at least one every day though. i am not having a lot of success adding foods to my diet. either they sit in my stomach and cause pain or i get sick as a dog. cheese is the only thing i can stomach besides the full liquid foods. anybody else have a problem with this?

Hi, I was sleeved on the 18th of June and am now back to eating whatever I feel like in small portions. Any breads or pastas etc are just too filling, so I've found cruskits or poppadom a great if I feel like something crunchy to have spreads or avocado, hummus etc on. How are you guys getting on now?

I eat edamame a lot because soybeans have tons of Protein and I love salt. Shredded pork with black Beans or refried beans. chicken or steak tacos. I have a lemon pepper bumblebee tuna can for lunch a lot, it's 18 grams of protein and justtheright amount of food. Sometimes I put tortilla chips on a ceramic plate and out cheese, jalapeños, and steak or chicken strips on top and heat into the oven for a few minutes. Then dip it in some guacamole or sour cream. Can't eat a bunch but it tastes amazing. Can't think of much else. I'm having serious trouble getting fluids in. Haaaate the way Water goes down, even when flavored with lemon or crystal light or even Koop aid packets. Unfortunately, I only like sugary coffees and teas. I'd really love some Fluid advice.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
