Did your surgeon give you a list of foods to eat? I believe on my plan I will be in a regular bariatric diet at 2 months, which means dense Proteins first, then veggies. Im not to eat any starch, sugars, or high fat foods. Good luck to you. If you have questions contract your surgeon's office.

You're not really restricted to what foods you can eat, but a sensible diet plan is suggested where you avoid fats, sugar, and starches and concentrate on getting in 60 g of Protein each day. Imagine a plate and fill it with 1/2 protein, 1/4 veggies and 1/4 grains/starches. You eat the protein first. If you're full, stop eating. If you're not full, move on to the veggies. Same thing, if you're full, stop eating. Always eat protein first.

Can someone tell me what i can eat 2 months out of sleeve surgery and is it normal to still have stomach and back pain

This may not be for everyone but in a typical day I would have a Protein Shake for Breakfast. A slice of ham or turkey wrapped around low-fat string cheese for mid morning snack a jif to go cup of Peanut Butter with an apple for lunch. A sensible dinner. Protein first always. I could only eat about 4 bites at a time. I would wait 30 mins and if I still felt hungry I'd go back to it. It's a mind game. Wrap your food up just as soon as u fill satisfied. Never eat till you fill full because by then you have overeaten. And make sure you don't drink when you eat. Drink plenty of Water. Which for me almost 2 years later is still hard to try and get it in. I haven't touched a soda or sweet tea since surgery. Stick to your diet low sugar mostly sugar free everything high protein don't overeat and you won't stretch out your stomach. I lost 100 lbs in 5 months. 1 year and 9 months later I'm down 130 lbs and I've kept it off. Hope this helps. Message me anytime if you need food ideas. Always helps to have a weight loss buddy. I had one.

      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!!
