First one month check-up clear for solid food! woohoo!

I've lost totally post-op 22 lbs and just saw my doctor today for the first check-up.

He told me that I should eat solid normal food now and stop with the Soup and soft food. Still no restriction for food excepr candies, sweet stuff and soda.

I took photos of most of my food during one month to show him with the portion (compare to my iPhone), he said I should eat more to lose weight. Now he ordered me to eat my meal in the portion of the iPhone!! OMG, I thought I would die from stuffing myself for that amount of food but actually it's fine. Just make sure to chew well and eat verrrrrrrrrrrry slowly.

So my first solid meal I went for Japanese, 1 small grilled ravioli, 1 beef & cheese teriyaki, 1 table spoon of rice and some green salad with sesame dressing.

Everything's gone in 50 minutes hehe except the rice because I chose to eat more salad instead.

I can exercise, go to swimming pool etc. Oh, I do have to increase also the Water intake from 1 litre to 1.5 litre.

Oh I'm so happy and feel like back to normal again. I'm eating out this weekend tomorrow I was invited to lunch at my friend's and on Sunday, brunch with my inlaws at a restaurant. It's going to be my first meal at the restaurant but my husband will be my buddy. He will choose 2 light dishes that he can eat his dish and help me with my left over, so it won't be too obvious because I didn't tell my family that I had the sleeve done.

Now I feel like the real challenge has just started.

My doctor never gave me calories limit. He is more into the small portion.

He said I should eat a little bit of everything (Carb, Protein, fat, fruits, vegetable) Oh, he told me to eat 1 Cereal bar for afternoon snack for the Vitamins... and I hate cereal bar!!!

He said I ate too little, I need to eat more to lose more weight.

In the past one month this is the portion that I ate for 1 meal.[a

Aww, sorry to hear that.

Well, my surgeon didn't forbid me from eating natural foof at all and I trust him as he performs more than 300 patients of WLS per year.

Oh, well I wasn't telling you not to listen to your surgeon, I was just telling you what my guidelines were....
