My doctor has me on liquids for a while and then 3 weeks of purée. Each doctor is different.

I will be more than happy to get past the puree phase...it is horrible I can't eat anything!!! So I'm stuck with shakes, applesauce, mashed potatoes and just recently added grits.

Your already eating solids???

Yeah, I did clear in the hospital. When I was discharged I was on full liquid and Jello etc for a week. Then from 1week to 1month its was soft foods... Scrambled egg, cottage cheese, Beans etc. At my one month I'm on chicken shrimp all veggie and fruit and salad.

It's the morning after a really painful night... I still feel FULL! I'm sipping water- I have no desire for food today.

I think I'm going to do a liquid/protein day :(

I feel a bit discouraged' date=' Fridays I order pizza for my kids, and today it looked so yummy, but all I was able to eat we're a few bites of mixed veggies and I was stuffed... I miss food, but don't miss the weight. So bittersweet

I can eat out without problems. I measure everything at home on a food scale so I have a pretty good idea of what the amount I can eat looks like....I just separate that amount out into another plate before I start eating.

I measure at home with measuring cup. I need to get a second plate ... Or needed. I need to stay home for a while it was a bad experience for me.

I had my surgery on 8/23/2012

I was on Clear liquids in the hospital

When discharged I was told to stay on Clear Liquids or full liquids for no more than 2 weeks UNLESS I started to feel bad like low blood sugar bad

I was shocked that it happened the Monday after surgery I tried Beans and they sat well

I must have a surgeon that is flexible based on the person

I feel lucky

Today we were out shopping and the rest of my family wanted lunch so we went to taco bell and I had half a serving of Beans and it pleased my pouch

Just wanted to share my experience so far

It's official!.... I can't eat out!

Went out to eat for dinner and I ate too much & feel nasty. I ate slow but didn't measure and didn't realize how much was going in :'( I ordered a Cobb salad with no Bacon or dressing I just at the egg' date=' the a lil turkey and the avocado. But my husband had shrimp and I kept picking and picking and probably ate 10 pieces of little shrimp.

I'm nauseous but nothing will come up. So much discomfort. I didn't get the full feeling until 20 minutes after so late and I can't express my feelings of disgust!

To me that sounds like three meals... The shrimp could be one, the egg another, and turkey and avocado another. If you don't have a scale just remember that your surgeon made your pouch the size of an egg or golf ball so your meal shouldn't be much larger at this point.

      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!!
