What part of that plate did you try to eat at 23 days out? And is a Bahama mama a cocktail? I still can't eat rice and I'm over 3 year out. And choosing not to eat Pasta and breaded shrimp keeps me at goal weight. Alcohol would have burned my stomach that early out. Are those things on your plan?

Nothing on that plate is appropriate. You need to follow the plan and listen to your body.

Not all plans are on puréed foods at 23 days out. Mine advanced more quickly than that. That's why I asked the original poster what her plan said. I do agree that there are some foods on that page that are cause for concern.

Wow ????. What is the point of surgery if you are already drinking alcohol and eating things you really shouldnt. Hopefully you dont get a leak or get sick

So usually I get really mad when I see a bunch of judgmental comments when people admit to cheating but this post doesn't even acknowledge there's a problem with this picture. Even the shrimp scampi would have been difficult at 23 days. I had a plain shirt cocktail at a holiday reception at about 8 weeks out and couldn't even eat half a shrimp. I can understand why if out on a date or out with friends who don't know you were sleeved you may feel embarrassed to order something sleeve appropriate (I've been there), but seriously there must have been some other choices. I think as long as you explain you are on a diet people accept that. Say you want to stick to the Soup or appetizers and you are on a low carb diet. Get sauces on the side...

I will caution you against this... no alcohol! You have an infants stomach and you wouldn't give an infant alcohol would you?

You drank while eating? Another huge no no.

If you took the bread off the shrimp, I could see you eating that, shrimp scampi would be ok if you let most of the fat drain off. Same for the shrimp only on the Pasta. No pasta! But even taking those measures, you should only be eating about 5 pieces and that is it! Your stomach is 4-8ozs big and still healing. The nerves haven't healed entirely either yet, so you won't know if you have injured yourself?

You spent a lot of money on this procedure... would be a waste if you continue to eat like the old you. I understand this might have been a "treat" meal... but, please read what we all have said. Find another outlet to "treat" yourself.

At 28 days I was on mechanically soft foods, nothing there I could have had. Heck even now at 18 weeks out the only thing there I may have would be the shrimp scampi, even then I'd have to drain the fat.

OP, that was very irresponsible. You have a big, long staple line and you're asking for a leak or worse.

I can't even eat chicken breast most of the time. Looking at that plate makes my stomach hurt.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
