Something about these posts just really makes me feel good about my choice. We're all wondering if we'll be able to eat real food.

Well...thats real food...real GOOD food.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks & you’re welcome! I try to eat good lean Protein with fruits and veggies. I post a lot of my meals on Instagram. You can see them at,”my_tiny_healthy_plate”. There are so many more ideas for meals out there. This don’t have to be boring. EVER!

That looks great! Do you eat everything on the plate?

I am 6 weeks out and I can only handle 2 or 3 bites of food and even with that I usually end up bringing it back up. The only things I've found that stay down is 1 scrambled egg or a few apple slices that I take about a half hour and really tiny bites to get down. I also suck on jelly Beans throughout the day. That's pretty much it. I know I'm not getting the nutrition that I need. I have a doctors appt. next week so I will talk to him about it. Did you have trouble keeping food down in the beginning?

I can eat a half a cup of food just fine. I can drink almost a 16oz bottle of Water in a few gulps. I’ve had a couple of times where I almost puked from eating to fast but been eating & drinking with no problems.

My surgeon said be careful about gulping and guzzling Water as it can stretch the stomach. He said hot dog eating contest contestants use guzzling/gulping water to purposely stretch their stomachs so they can fit more in. He also said that people unconsciously try to make their stomachs like before surgery because they think that's the normal/healthy stomach. We need to be aware what we might be doing that can sabotage our weight loss.

      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!

      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!!
