Early to mid September Sleevers

Hi all,

I had my surgery 9/15. I'm feeling great and am pleased with my weight loss at this point in the game. This weekend I moved onto Stage 3, moist chicken, fish, scrambled egg etc. After weeks of Soups and yogurt I am very happy to be in this phase. My question to you is what and how much are you eating?

Hope you are all doing well!

Hey Staci, my surgery was 9/6, I'm eating all of the same things you are plus some pureed fruits, cooked soft mashed veggies like riced cauliflower, broccoli and spinach. I am allowed to have soft cereals and potatoes but I cut those out pre op and I'm hesitant to let them back in. Still usually have to have 1 Protein Shake, just so I'm not playing catch up with Protein at the end of the day. Having the shake also gives me room to have the veggies and fruit, otherwise it would be protein all day long. My calories have been between 800-900, I wasn't given any calorie target but that seems to be where I land each day. Surgery weight was 230 and today I was at 211.8, so seem this works for me. Who would think scrambled eggs could be such a treat. :)

Also, I log everything on my fitness pal, i'm a grazer so its easy for me to get carried away without realising it. I am eating 2oz of meat at a time. 1 egg fits nicely but i can get 2 down over about 40 mins. Veggies are usually in 1/2 c portions.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
