I was sleeved Sep 26 and recovery has been well! Have lost about 24 pounds since surgery. And my doc said I could start soft/puréed foods. I had my wife scramble an egg and I was only able to take a couple bites, not because that was all I could take, but more afraid, that I might mess something up down there. Got my appt with my VA doc to start my b12 injections, as recommended by my surgeons office, I also got, from VA doc too, prescriptions for all the daily vitamin supplements, but I'm scared to take them whole and I hate the crushed versions...any suggestions? But all in all recovery has not been bad

As long as you eat slowly, you should be able to eat a few bites without worry. No more than a half cup at once. Pause between bites and stop at the first sign of pain or full feeling.

I ordered chewable Vitamins from celebratevitamins.com. You can also buy chewable or gummy vitamins from the drug store. I was told not to take Vitamin pills/capsules until after a month out.

Glad you're feeling well!

congratulations on your weight loss! I was sleeved Sept 25, down 16 lbs in two weeks! I am getting ready to start eggs too. It is scarey but you have to start some where! Good luck to you keep us updated.

afraid I might mess something up down there.

you are not gonna hurt your new little tummy

its ok to be a little cautious/scared about eating too much

less is more??

work with the sleeve and it, and it will work with you

better not to push the food/over eat

but after a while

GET OVER IT

you must gradually eat more food

follow your NUTS words to how much you should eat

good idea from @@thesuse2000 - they should do the trick

glad you are doing well

that is wonderful

24 lbs down

continued speedy recovery

keep up the good job

kathy

congrats
