I was sleeved on 5/24. The surgery went fine but I had a few issues with my heart rate post op. All ok now though:)

I have 5 days left on liquids before I progress to purée/soft and all I can think about is scrambled eggs!

Oh my gosh, scrambled eggs post op after liquid diet are soooo good. Definitely start with just one egg (I could only eat 3-4 bites my first time) and take a small bite with lots of chews. I've moved up to 2-eggs with a little cheese on it and takes me about 45 minutes to eat but it's very good.

FYI - I've found hard boiled eggs (no yolks) are tough on my stomach.

Also, I was able to do low fat cottage cheese pretty easy.

Glad you're okay now!

Another awesome find while still on soft food is avocado. It tastes amazing and feels really good going in.

Sleeved 5/24. I'm eating the same 5 foods for a couple of weeks now then 6/24, I get to add new food. I haven't lost any weight in a
Week and I sticking strictly to the plan. Hopefully the addition of new food will
Kick start my metabolism or something. Good luck to you all.

Hi all! I was sleeved on 5/24/17 also! I've hit a stall (2nd one) and I think it's due to dehydration for me. I started adding in more exercise, too. I'm going to try and reach my Water goals this week. How is everyone else doing?

How's everyone doing here? Anybody getting bored with their food? I am a little bit. Also, I am dying for something sweet (besides Protein shake) but I'm not allowed to eat fruit. Does anybody here have a suggestion?

I've also had some serious cravings for sweets! Here are some of the things I've tried - with mixed results.....

- Frozen sugar free pudding Pops: Wpnderful - but I don't have enough self control to not eat the whole box in 2-3 days!

- Sugar Free Rice Pudding: Enjoy the creamy goodness....but they sit a little heavy, in my opinion.

- Cottage Cheese: I like the Muuna brand. Will mix 1 plain with 1 container of the fruit on the bottom variety (to manage the sugar content). Texture works well for me and helps me get a little bit more Protein.

After pre-op / post-op liquid stages, I'll likely never eat Jello again!!! :)

Hope this is helpful in some way. Keep fighting the good fight!

      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!!
