I really miss salads! I Keep trying, but they just don't sit right. I'm 3 mos. out. Please tell me it gets better. I'm ok with cooked veggies, just not leafy salads.

I had a chipotle black bean burger and that thing "barked" at me for a solid 2 days. Worst heartburn I've ever had!

I just bought some of those at Costco! Love them!

I had some and I could hold them down.

@@SleevyWonder - Funny because I was going to purchase the lobster bisque they had on sale.

I'm 17 months post-op and still can't do raw veggies, so it may not get better. The good news is, salad is pretty much a waste of sleeve space anyway, so it's better to get your Protein in.

It does get better. I promise. Have you tried fresh spinach instead of leaf lettuce? Spinach is softer and milder. I love my salads as long as I have a vinegar based dressing. Anything creamy, or sweet doesn't stay around long!

I believe fresh veggies and a salad occasionally help to cleanse one's palate and reset it.

It would be a dreary world without freshness.

Straight milk. I can have any dairy products, but if I try and have a cup of milk I get dumping syndrome.

My stomach can't handle anything remotely hot/spicy.

I tried to make pancakes with coconut flour, eggs and bananas and was miserable for quite some time. I think it was the bananas.

I've been extremely lucky, I'm 10 weeks out and I haven't barfed since leaving the hospital!

Skin on chicken. I always make skinless chicken breasts but was running late so I picked up one of those rotisserie chickens already made in the grocery store. I don't know why but because the skin was on it I craved it. Big mistake, suffered all night. Same reaction to tilapia but I think I just that too fast but I will never eat fish again, only shellfish:)

I am at 9 week post op and most food still makes me ill I am really hoping this feeling goes away. I am afraid to try much more then cottage cheese, mac and cheese, Soups, and Protein shakes. I really hope someday I can eat more food and just keep up with my smaller portion. :rolleyes:

Mac & Cheese? Not really the best choice at 9 weeks out. I do think things will get better for you. 9 weeks is still pretty early.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
