Hello All,

I am only in the beginning of my journey. I met with a nutritionist yesterday and it didn't go well. She basically told me that I will never be able to eat anything other than mush for the rest of my life. I got really freaked out. The thought of never having a bite of chicken or even a raw carrot scared me. I don't want to cancel everything, because this is a life changer for me and can give me the life that I have always wanted. But the thought of living a life where I can't even eat a raw carrot sounds horrible.

Any one who has gone through the process have some thoughts? Thanks!

I'm only five months out and I can eat anything (and have probably been OK to eat everything since 3-4 months). I eat raw carrots and chicken every day. Lol. That's like my core diet! I can also eat things like steak (even dry steak without sauce), salad and bread (although I only bread once and just to see if I could). I had a sleeve and I have never thrown up or experienced dumping syndrome. I know some people have food that they can disagree with (e.g. problems with sugar or whatever), but they can definitely eat solid foods!

I would never have signed up a diet of mush for the rest of my life!!! Can you imagine? No thanks!
