I'm 9 weeks out. Just a lil afraid I'm able to eat a lil more than most ppl. I'm able to eat two eggs in the morning for breakfast ( I don't I eat one) but just thinking maybe my sleeve is bigger or am I stretching it? Also I could take gulps of water rather than sips?

I was on clear for so many day, full liquids for so many, then puréed, and now soft. Following my plan as instructed. I'm sorry but I guess everyone progresses differently.

Then my apologies... I was just going off of something you wrote a few days ago about your progression.

Good luck on your journey

I see there is a Fresco Style MexiMelt, but not sure exactly what that means, though I see the site says it is a 25% reduction in fat. If you are not ordering it Fresco Style, the nutrition information on these is not the greatest. 7 grams of saturated fat, 730 mg of sodium ... OY! And it is a soft tortilla, so the breads is basically nutritionally irrelevant while taking up so much valuable stomach real estate. Perhaps just try to eat the insides of a Fresco Style if you are in a pinch.

** Edit ***

To the OP, once you progress to solids and begin with the routine of eating lean Protein first, then you will get the expected restriction.

I order them without the salsa. I eat the remainder' date=' shell and all. It all goes down really easily. 220 calories and 14 grams of Protein. My doc told me to aim for 350 calories and 20 grams of protein per meal. That is the closet thing I have found that I can get down.[/quote']

Just a question. Are those numbers correct? Cause that means only 23% of your calories are coming from protein? That seems incredibly low. Especially for someone recently sleeved.

Hey thank you for your replies. I thought the eggs were too much but I sat down and actually times myself as I was eating and the longer I take eating the more I take chewing the more I eat so I am able to eat two scramble eggs but I feel stuffed afterwards so I've settle for one and let's say I'm not satisfy than I'll have the whites from another. So I wanted to let u guys know also just as an experiment I went to buy a meximelt from Taco Bell I was able to eat only the chicken ( I asked for chicken instead of meat) and the tomato inside of it I couldn't see myself eating the pita nor did it fit. I guess my sleeve is not too big after all and I think I'll stick to my turkey, soups, eggs like I've been doing. I wouldn't want to "strech it".
