Hello,

My (Lela) story began in August 2013, I began taking a product called Plexus Slim, the product was awesome, but I was not happy with the results, So I began searching info on the gastric sleeve. In Jan of 2014 I began the process for surgery, soaked in all the info that I could find, started going to the gym on a daily basis, participating in a couple of classes (Water aerobics, body combat) along with walking on the treadmill for 45 min, also strength building with weights,

So here I am 5 days out of Surgery and I feel great, thanking God for no nausea, I honestly feel like I could take a hike up a mountain, I am just concerned that I need to be doing something else, not sure what! I am eating Jellos sugar free, popsicles sugar free creamy Soups, is there anything that someone could suggest as for Breakfast?

Surgery Date was 7/7/14 (could not get any better than that)

Dr. James Redmann was my surgeon

Hospital: Southern Surgical

I had my surgery an 6/27 and can finally eat a mashed egg for breakfast!! My liquid Breakfast was one of my Protein shakes that I would Water down because they are too sweet for my taste. Its only for a short time but I am glad to have other options!! Hang in there, you'll be eating pureed foods before you know it!!!

@HealthyandSlimmer - you are late to the ballgame - the OP posted her surgery over 3 years ago!! (You have 4 posts under your belt and comment on an oldie.)

And even if this is true - you should cite a link to the proof.

      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! 😞
