During the pureed stage, I hit a stall for 10 days. I was nervous about starting soft foods this last Thursday. My mentality was more food = more weight. My body no longer thinks it's starving!!! Since Thursday, I've lost 3.5 lbs. Since surgery 4 1/2 weeks ago I've lost 19 lbs. 46 lbs total since starting this journey. I'm liking my new sleeve and I definitely like having food again.

Early stalls are awful and such a head %£$*. Glad you are out of it and way to go with the loss !!!

Wooo-hoo! Keep focused. You will have stalls even a set back here amd there but keep focused on good health and you'll obtain your goals.

Congratulations on the weight loss and on breaking the stall!

I am currently on a week stall. I too, stalled when I started my pureed food stage.

I have just been sitting at a weight loss of 17 lbs. Can't wait to break this stall myself!

I'm in almost the exact same boat! Pureed ends Tuesday, I've been stuck around 15-16 pounds since surgery, and 10 of that was lost the first week. Thank you so much for posting, it's so reassuring. T___T I've been thinking that once I get some real food in me my body will stop storing all the calories I AM taking in...

I am about to start soft foods, what are the expectations for eating? I am starting to want food is that normal?

I try one new food a day, even though I think I want to try more. I had a poached egg yesterday. I had no problems eating it but it sat really hard in my stomach for about 3 hours. I won't try that again for quite some time. Soft chicken, tuna with a little light mayo, deli turkey rolled up with small amount of hummus in it, string cheese, cottage cheese, steamed squash, green Beans and salmon have all worked well. When I weigh out 2 oz of Protein, I look at it and think, "There's NO WAY this is going to fill me up!" So far, I haven't been able to finish the 2 oz. It's weird. I don't feel full in my stomach like I used to, I can just tell I don't need any more. It's a new sensation. Also, chili didn't sit well with me. I'm still dealing with acid and I think the tomato was too hard on my new stomach. @@2Tuffproc Good luck with this next stage. I'm really enjoying it.

Thank you. Did you experience hunger pains? I must be waiting to long before eating something.
