I'm 8 weeks out from getting revision from band to sleeve and started solids this week. So far going good, no issues with anything and able to keep it down. Haven't gone crazy had chicken, ground beef, carrots etc. tomorrow I plan to have a 1/2 slice of toast and I can't wait. I try to stay with easy stuff while at work just I case

Your surgeon's postop diet plan will dictate when you start solid foods. And I suggest following his/her instructions to a T. I only introduced one new thing /day through every stage. I transitioned very slowly, ate very slow and chewed chewed chewed. Had no problems.

Per my surgeon's plan, I was on full liquids for four weeks, then purees for four weeks, then on to soft solids. I followed his instructions faithfully and had no problems.

I was purée - after 1 week

Then onto soft foods two weeks after that

Have just been cleard for solids but I still haven't tried steak or anything

Raw veggies kind of hit my tummy a little hard.

Or at leadt the carrots and broccoli did. Lol

Had corned beef this week. Yummy!!!!

But mostly still a lot of fish and some poultry and occasionally ground beef

Am going to make chicken shish Ka bab tonite and hubby having hanger steak. I may try a bite.

Gotta say turning into a pescatarian and I don't mind really!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
