I am headed south of the border to Tijuana on May 24, 2014 for the sleeve with Dr. Elias Ortiz. Anybody else having surgery in May?

I am 10 days out and things do get better gas xstrips really help and it slept in the recliner for the first 7 days then went to sleeping with a pillow under my left side still having some pain when I over do it I can eat some foods tht I think help but I am still not eating 3 meals a day and I think that's a problem so hang in there it will get better

The Gasx strips did not do anything for me. I can eat pretty much anything at this point. (That's purée approved) I just blended some peaches and put a dollap ontop of a heaping tablespoon of cottage cheese.

I'm making homemade refried Beans for dinner!

I right along with you I am at 16 lbs and eating puréed foods or baby food I was also told I can have tuna or chicken in a can great job

Yeah it's hard getting all that protein in!!! I can't do it. I mean I could but it takes me a long time just to drink one of my shakes. But I puréed some tuna yesterday so I'm getting. Natural protein in at least. I probly average around 30-40 grams a day

She just told me my staples are steal healing! I'm blessed that I do not have any pain, and I did not have to much the day of and after my surgery! Do you get full fast?

How was the tuna puréed? I'm about to do it?
