I want veggies?



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I'm doing great, but I've started to really crave veggies. I was sleeved on 12/18 and I will still be on mushy food for a few days. With getting in Protein, I haven't been able to get much of the veggies in. How have you handles this?

Shhh, don't tell anyone, but I have been eating some canned asparagus tips every once in a while. They are so mushy there is no problem getting them down and even though I prefer fresh they have helped my craving for veggies.

I will be a month on Tuesday so that is when I get to start mushy foods.

I've been juicing carrots, kale, cucumber, green apples and all sorts of other blends. It's been a great and easy way to get those nutrients in!

Would you all be interested in a forum where you could discuss vegetarian and vegan options without any pressure? We'd of course have an emphasis on getting in as much B12, Protein, etc. as possible but without the pressure thrown at us to have meat.

I know I felt uncomfortable with my surgeon who always pushed those things or just Beans at me when I couldn't do them.

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
