Just want to take a bite of solid food



Recommended Posts

Please use your common sense.

Eating sticky candy two weeks out, before beeing cleared for pureed and soft foods is an invite for complications. Even at the pureed and soft food stage, candy is not allowed.

With that mindset you could eat chocolate for your liquid stage, since it melts in your mouth. But is it in accordance with your plan? I bet not.

Your nut most likely wants you to eat a healthy, hi Protein and low carb diet. It never includes sweets!! Candy is hi carb and empty calories and can get stuck in your staples. Ask your surgeon or nut for their opinion if you don't believe me or the other people trying to help you.

And this is a public forum where the vets are very helpful. You might want to listen to the people who succeeded already. They did it right.

I wish you luck and hope you don't end up with the people who didn't take advantage of their wls and didn't lose weight or gained it back, at the bad end of the percentage spectrum.

You have to work for it.

I agree! I only want it when I smell it! But I'm way to full feeling all the time

I was instructed to use Flinsto nd Vitamins?


flinstone vitamins tend to be chewables.

I passed on them because most of the mv's I found contained Calcium carbonate.

So I went with Jamieson chewable mv's w/o calcium and take calcium separately.

Having no luck finding calcium citrate chewables anywhere. Found liquid calcium carbonate in liquid form but far more expensive than its worth and tastes like barium Fluid.

      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!!
