I'm Samantha, I'm 16 years old and I just underwent the gastric sleeve. I'm feeling great, and although I'm extremely young I feel I truly was ready for this huge milestone in my life. Im so ready to continue this weight loss journey. I've lost 20 lbs in total and had my surgery on November 18th, 2016.

Today I start purée.

I took it slow and added a different food every couple of days.

Protein (meat/fish) with juice/thin gravy/mayo, cottage cheese mashed down, soft scrambled eggs, thicker Soups blended, Greek yogurt (no bits), mashed advacado.

I pureed mine in a machine and made sure it was as fresh as it could be especially in the first year, so soups were home made, chicken corn fed and organic etc etc.

Did your team not give you a guideline to follow?

Congratulations
