Hello all. Tomorrow will mark 1 month since my sleeve operation and I, like a dummy, have misplaced my menu and trying to reach the facility that performed my surgery is a joke-they never pick up the phone nor do they return calls. But this is my week 5 phase when it comes to food. I was just released from the hospital a few days ago for severe dehydration and vomiting every single day for about a week; the doctors don't know why I keep vomiting but I'm just gonna remain focused and try to get all my liquid down and eat right. Speaking of which the reason I started this thread is to see if anyone could give me any ideas of foods u can eat in the week 5 phase? I either don't eat or pinch off of rotisserie chicken since I don't know what to eat at this point. Soup and pureed stuff is out of the question-I'm all burned out with that...lol...can I do ground turkey chili? Any homemade recipes anyone can provide or ideas would be greatly appreciated ????????

every surgeon has a different schedule of progression. i was on regular food after a month with the exception of raw vegetables and nuts. although i could eat whatever i started slow. mashed up meatball with plenty of sauce, turkey chilli was also a good choice. make sure small bites and eat slow. i made the mistake of chicken breast oh boy was that an unpleasant experience.

Have you tried scrambled eggs? I've had turkey meatballs and turkey meatloaf. Do you like tofu? I made a chicken pot pie but without any of the "pie" part, so really just the innards. Chili worked really well also. Also, baked potato or mashed potatoes.

Thanks. I tried scrambled egg whites with finely chopped vegetarian sausage diced up in it, along with a small pinch of cheese.

      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! 😞
