Why do people act like progressing to the next food stage at your doctor's orders is failing your sleeve? If you're able to progress to the next stage and still make healthy choices that's one step closer to living a normal healthy life. Some of the healthiest foods are not allowed in the liquid and pureed phases and I'm sure there are plenty of mushy foods that got us to where we are today.

Wait, whuuuuut? Where did anyone "act like progressing" is "failing your sleeve"?

I asked a sincere question, got a sincere reply and shared my different experience. See, some of us can actually have different opinions WITHOUT getting defensive. It's a cool thing, really. It's called adulting. ;)

Welllppp... I was the only one who had a differing experience, so... And NO ONE said ANYTHING about "failing their sleeve" or progressing off plan.

Who WERE you addressing then?

:D

I was addressing the various posts I've read practically condemning people who were choosing to follow their doctors orders and not random people in a forum. You may have seen and/or participated in them. If what I said did not apply to you feel free to read and move along resting assured that if I ever wanted to address you I would quote or @ you. @@LipstickLady

A while ago someone posted a link for General Tso's "Skinny Chicken".

It is pan cooked rather than deep fried and was a lower calorie alternative to the original.

It was a hit with my family when I made it.

There are lower calorie, healthier recipes when we have a "jones on" for something more indulgent.

I literally LOL'Ed.

Once I was on solid foods I had steamed chicken and vegetables and added my own szechuan seasoning. Rice is out for me too many carbs and it makes me feel weird. I have had general tso's chicken but usually only 2-3 pieces before I am full.

Now 10 months out I go for steamed veggies and Protein and I add my own seasoning. It's just not worth the calories for me.

The Green Beans or the Broccoli - Stay Veggie based and RUN AWAY from the starches (Rice is a PAINFUL experience for me - Immediately). Have some chicken and pineapple, and enjoy the Conversation (Never really heard people talking Before the Sleeve!)

      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.

      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... :(
