@@SilentBotts there is not much that i can have, for the last 3 days I haven't had anything because it just comes back up and today Water started making me sick. They gave me zofran to see if that will help with it.

I was the same way. I took Zofran and a medicine that kept my stomach from cramping for three months post op. I could only drink watered down Gatorade for the first few weeks. I slimed like a beast and still throw up some days. ARGH.

But totally worth it.

This will pass.

I never suggested for her to eat cucumber on purée stage. I said " as soon as your plan allow you to have cucumber... That was just a idea and a better choice than cracker later on....

I have carbs on my menu. My nut says I can have it: pureed rice, pureed Pasta but I choose not to just because only the thought of pureed rice/pasta makes me sick. Moderation is the key not avoiding completely carbs. Think about it if you don't eat it for 6-8 months when you gonna start eating the carbs again the weight will pile back on with vengeance. As I said before I believe you can be successful if you stick to the natural stuff and ditch all the other stuff that brought you here in the first place. As for crackers, it might be a bit too early.

I totally agree. :D

My sushi guy uses cucumber instead of rice to hold my sushi together. It's awesome. Red peppers work, too. (Not for sushi, for salads and dips.)

@@s.thompson, I don’t think you can have crackers on the pureed foods diet. Are they listed among the approved foods that you have a list of? Generally, like @@Inner Surfer Girl says, you want to keep your pureed foods foods that you can eat with a spoon. They should be perfectly smooth. Crackers can be sharp and bother the wounds of your sleeve – remember, you’re still healing.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
