Lol--mine was on April 8th and I'm Still on full liquids. I am So ready for some Cottage cheese or an avocado!

Today is my first day of puree! (Dos 4/10) I also went back to work today and I don't want to try anything new here! So...maybe for dinner? Any suggestions? How thin did you make your puree?

I made it smooth like cake batter but not liquid.

Mine was the same

Great information on the straw thing. Is anyone considering a vegetarian lifestyle post-op?

Coincidentally my diet has been leaning towards vegetarian. Things like morning star burgers have been great and gentle for me. Cheese and yogurt as well

I'm trying not to get down here, but I lost the first week after surgery, and now it's week three (and a half) which means more than two weeks with no loss. I also haven't noticed a huge difference in my clothes. I'm following my surgeon's plan exactly.... I know there are going to be stalls, but come on :( On a happier note, keep up the good work ladies! It seems like everyone is being careful and smart about their decisions

I'm at a stall right now too--it's very common to happen at weeks 2-4. I've been at the same for over a week now. It is hard to deal with, but just trust in the process and know that the weight WILL come off if you stick to your rules. Plateaus are just a bump in the road.

Was alright yesterday, but sure hurting today. All I want to do is sleep. Made tacos for the family, but didn't even think about the food. I think I am going to really struggle getting liquids in today. Ugh.... SO TIRED!!

Today is my first day home. gas pains are bad today. Gas X strips do not work. The chewable ones do. I never knew passing gas could feel so good. But then once I started passing gas I've had diarrhea all day. Every time I drink water, take meds or vitamins I am headed to the bathroom. And asking my husband to wipe me is humiliating.
