Is the Paleo diet good to follow after surgery???

Simply put, yes, I think most successful sleevers follow that type of lifestyle without realizing it. I know I did. I didn't really know I was until someone else pointed it out to me after seeing my plate with just meat and kale. But I'm a person who, having been haunted by the word diet in the past, have decided I am not going to do anymore "diets". That is why I got the sleeve.

But, if you have looked at the recommended meal plans, you can see it is weighted heavy on the protein and good carb side of things. If you want to follow this and say you are on a diet, you can do that. I just know it is all I can do just to eat my meat and veggies before I allow myself a cookie or something which may be considered "non-paleo".

I've had my most success with the paleo thing as well. I am going to be having surgery on the 4th of February and I'm not sure how to do it with the post op diet. What do you do for the mushy weeks? I can't eat mashed potatoes, bananas, etc... Any ideas? Or do I just get through those phases and switch to proteins and veggies once on regular foods again?

For the mushy/puréed stage, I ate turkey chili soup with veggies and ham/lentil/veggie soup. As I progressed, I puréed them less and less. I also added tuna with ranch on a piece of sharp cheddar. Basically, take whatever food you like, add some broth and purée it.

Cool. Thanks!
