Hi, I was sleeved on 09.15 I am in soft/mushy food phase I. I am allowed to have broccoli but it has to be cooked and eat only the florets... I tried a couple of days ago, and it went fine... so far so good. I hope you are doing well

I was sleeved 9/12 as well and no change in weight for 9 days. The week before that I only lost one lbs so I'm double irked. As for the broccoli question I have eaten it, it just has to be cooked down. I'm pretty much eating normally now but I have not tried salads yet.

I was the 13th. Why not make broccoli Soup. I know it's not crunchy but the smell and taste might take the edge off. You could add unflavired Protein too

Hey, sorry it took me so long to reply. Well, about Protein, I really struggle to meet my goal, because I hate the rtd milkshakes. I am tired of them, all the vanilla flavor taste too sweet for me now and I can't stand it. I eat a lot of Beans Soup (red kidney, split peas), however, since I don't eat that much, I don't really get a lot of protein from it. I eat also chicken that was cooked with Soup because it keeps it moisted and the nurse practitioner advised me to eat it that way... I eat scramble eggs with cheese and milk. Also, I drink close to one cup of milk, for some reason, I enjoy it cold and in the morning, specially after taking my Multivitamin. I am buying a milk from kroger called carb master and has 11 grams of protein... also I eat half of a low fat cheese stick, like sharp cheddar. All these were tips that the nurse practitioner gave me during my 2 week post op. Next Thursday I will see her again for my 4 weeks post op. I hope the info was helpful.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
