I didnt puree anything! Ive been having soft eggs only. This stage ends monday. Wooo!!

Lucky you! I still have two weeks of soft foods. Quick question. Does anyone have regrets about the surgery? Eating is so uncomfortable and I don't enjoy it. Ugh!

I never pureed anything either. Well once I pureed some turkey with a little mustard but it was awful. I just ate soft foods and chewed till I couldn't chew any more :)

tsxo- sometimes eating is uncomfortable and I don't always want to, but generally no discomfort. How far out are you?

Sarting monday phase 1 I introduce soft meats, deli meats, cheeses, etc. Phase 2 is whole grains. Phase 3 is raw veggies/fruits. What about you?

You're allowed whole grains?? Like what?? I'm allowed non sugary cold Cereal if it's soaked in milk, but otherwise no grains.

I have NO regrets! I feel amazing, I don't get sick with vomiting or diarrhea and I know people who do everyday. Which is from making very poor choices. I did puree some things, of course it's almost forgotten now. Kinda like during and after giving birth, you swear you'll never do it again, but then you are so happy that you would do it all over again. One day (a few months) you will love the changes and you would do it all over again!

I hope so. I'm sick of eggs for Breakfast, Protein shakes and chicken. I don't eat seafood so I'm very limited. I used to love it and now knowing that's what I'm going to eat I really don't even want to. I haven't gotten sick since I haven't tried eating anything the dietician said not to. I have to wait another 2 weeks to eat veggies and fruits! Ugh!

I still have a Protein Shake most morning's, the trick is to make it a little different each day. chocolate thick like a frosty, berry or peach. Heck for thanksgiving, I made a pumpkin one. Not something I could drink often, it tasted just like a cold pumpkin pie with whipped cream. It was a mind thing! I just find shakes are easier and give me lots more Protein to kick start my day. It's just a mind set, you can do anything you set your mind too! Good luck!

It's starch and carbs and will turn into fat. There is zero nutritional value to popcorn

- Kaylee Ann ~ Surgerversary 6/11/2012

I'm confused. You eat no starch or carbs? My Dr has strict orders that I must eat a starch at every meal. Said starch is what gives us energy.

Not saying my way is correct, but its correct for me... it is saying that diet plans are different with every Dr. Be positive! We are all here to support each other.

I am able to eat popcorn. However, I need to be careful with huls.

So I just seen my Nut and she informed that popcorn is okay after six weeks post op...thanks everyone for the advice :) Oh and that starches are ok too because I asked about rice and she said that it's perfectly fine.

Cool! Please post back here after you've tried popcorn! I have a bag of pretzel crisps here, and I eat one per day to satisfy my "crunch" cravings.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
