I'm seriously tired. Absolutely no energy. I can get maybe 2 ounces of shake or yogurt in. Or 3 ounces cream Soup. I'm pushing n pushing my Water but it's never enough. I'm not trying to be a whiner but I'm pretty miserable.

I hope you feel better soon. Things will get better, you're in my thoughts and prayers.

I have begun the soft food phase of the program and have a question. I do not see eggs on ether the approved food list or the not approved list. Why? My wife has about four containers of egg whites but I'm not sure if they are good or bad. Advise would be welcomed.

They are on my list for puréed stage. Scramble, Blend then reheat. But from what I can tell is every dr/NUT has different requirements. I would check with them

Softly scrambled eggs are on my puréed list.

I find Protein powders intolerable. I barf them up. It doesn't matter what I add it to, I get very ill. And I can barely tolerate Protein Drinks. I can handle 3 ounces of the RTD premier chocolate. The vanilla makes me barf. I just feel like if it weren't for cream of chicken Soup I'd starve. Any ideas??

I'm the same way. I can't ad Protein powders to Soups, or drink em. They tasted like chocolate milk before, but not now. Same with the carnation instant Breakfast. I tried to to suck one down last night and I just couldn't.

And the protidiets are ok, but same in the nor so delicious now category.

I'm at like 33 g of protein today. Struggling getting more than that. Same with liquids. I'm maybe getting 40-50oz. I'm trying to eat more popsicles. Hah.

I had surgery on Monday afternoon and if it wasn't for my liquid percaset I wouldn't sleep at all and I wouldn't get any liquids in either, it hurts when I lay down, hurts when I get up! So I know it'll take a lil while so I'm just gonna use the meds they gave me lol.

My insurance wouldn't cover the pain meds in liquid form. Nice, huh? Lol

I was just getting concerned Bc I'm getting like 150-200 calories a day.

As for sleeping, I'm a side sleeper and that deep incision burns sometimes and pulls so it wakes me up.

I don't have a problem sleeping, especially with the liquid lortab. I also have set up my bed on the couch. I have a sectional, so I've set up shop in the corner so I can prop myself up a little bit, and it's been great. I'm still too nervous to lay flat in bed. Mostly cause I'm a side sleeper and don't want to hurt myself.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
