A little sore still in one of the port areas. I keep getting this niggly cough that just makes everywhere hurt. I am struggling with the Protein intake but it is getting better everyday! What about you?

I was also sleeved Nov 28th. I did try pizza cheese and sauce around NYE but I actually didn’t enjoy it. The spices in the sauce didn’t agree with my new pallet.

I tried the ricotta bakes earlier also and those didn’t taste good either.

Maybe strange but I’ll live with it for now I guess.

I had a square of plain cheese thin crust from Domino’s last week and tolerated it well. Then tonight I had a bite of my wife’s red Beans and rice from Yat’s. Fortunately I can still tolerate spicy foods.

I had pizza for the first time since surgery yesterday! It was AMAZING. One small piece of pepperoni pizza was sooooo satisfying and worth the wait.

I’ll hold off for another few weeks and give it another go I think. I doubt I’ll stay away from it forever lol

That’s my plan once I’m on a general diet - if I don’t tolerate it then, try again in a month.

I have tolerated everything ive tried so far. To be honest that isnt much lol! Im scared to have rice and Pasta. chocolate seems to go down well.

Has anyone else noticed their weightloss yet! I only see mine in the face but everyone else is always so shocked when they see me. I really dont see much of a difference other than baggy clothes.

I’m kinda curious how much everyone is able to eat. I still can’t eat much.
For lunch I had 1.5 meatballs and a few curds of cottage cheese. Not even a 1/4 teaspoon.

When does the amount of food in take go up. I’d prefer not to eat every 2 hours or less.

I already need new closes badly. Down 60lbs and I’m still I. Same clothes as before pre-op lol
It’s bad lol

My portions are small but I can definitely keep down more than you! I still do Protein Shakes for Breakfast because I never liked eating early in the morning and I go to the gym at 6am so I need something in my belly. For lunch I'll either do another shake or a yogurt, cottage cheese, etc. Any of those keep me full and satisfied without needing to snack. For dinner I do about 2-3 oz of baked chicken and a little vegetable on the side. The dense Protein still makes me feel overly full and most times I'm done after 2 or 3 bites.

Some days I have no hunger at all so I just do 3 protein shakes to make sure I'm getting my protein requirements. Drinking is very easy for me and it goes down without issue.

60lbs is awesome!!!! Congrats [emoji106] [emoji106]
I've been stuck at 40lbs down for about a week now. I feel good though so hopefully I'll see more loss soon.

Im eating about 4 spoons of food at a time. Most of my meals are chicken or fish with a tiny amount of vegetables. Bread/toast no longer agrees with me so i usually have a porridge for breakfast. If i snack in the day its usually with grapes and cheese.

So far i've lost 42lbs but it has been like that for a couple of weeks now.
Once i start exercising im hoping it will go down faster.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!
