How long was it before raw veggies and salad greens sat well with you? I'm a couple of weeks away from being able to start adding them in and I'm a little apprehensive. Most things I try go ok for me but when they don't, it's real bad. Were they tricky to incorporate?

Oh man my team is a little more slow/old school they let me incorporate them at 6 months post. I was good by then. Except raw purple cabbage is still a problem ...

A lot of others posters added them way earlier.

Was supposed to be 6 weeks but saw my surgeon at week 5 and was given the green light, no more restrictions. Peas, corn, iceburg, spinach, carrots, cucumber, Tomato, pickles, avocado. I have had no problem with any of them. Just like anything else, start slow and see how you react to it. Good luck and enjoy.

I started at about 6 weeks, I had no issues with them.

Meal prep again!

Frittata? Omelette? IDK what to call it, it is my Mother's recipe without potatoes.

Mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, spinach, eggs, spices

Easy.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
