My doc said two weeks after the surgery to start soft foods.

I just started pureed foods, and my surgery was on the 16th. So far I have tried; egg, swiss cheese, applesauce, canned chicken with light mayo and salsa. I bought a can of the chunky Soup that has potatoes and beef. I'm going to puree that and try it.

are you lifting over 10 pounds yet? I've picked my son up a couple of times out of necessity. He's 25 lbs.

Did you go from clear liquid to puree? No full liquids?

Call your surgeons office. When was your surgery. When in doubt, call.

so far I'm having no issues with lifting him. I try to keep him away from my boo boo. It's mainly getting him out of the crib. I kind of have 0 motivation today. The idea of even making a Protein Shake makes me tired lol. I might go make some Cookies for my child, only because I can turn the oven on and I am pretty cold today.

I'm starting to wonder how big my pouch is. I pureed a cup of Soup and never did I get full. I prob ate 3/4 of cup of it. Maybe because it was pureed?

Went from having a good amount of energy to none over the last few days... Ugh. Just dragging... Perhaps it has all caught up with me! And I gained a few pounds... I am taking that as just part of the cycle... Tomorrow will be a better day. I will stop complaining now... Just because I am too tired B-)

Yeah and trying to find a pill container to find them all is a joke too.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
