I bought it so excited. Heated it up immediately when I got home, strained the bits out of it, poured into my little Portion Control bowl and ate a few bites slowly so ready for it to be amazing. I then handed it off to my husband and told him I will not be eating it.
The Tomato and Red pepper Soup I shared somewhere has been amazing though. I think its my new favorite.
I get all my Protein in my 3 shakes so I am okayed for a small bowl of non- protein soup daily.

Just found you all 😁 I had my sleeve surgery on the 14th. Today is my first full day at home. Still very tired and I'm a lot of pain. I thought I was ready food wise but struggling getting enough food and Water in, I'm just not hungry and terrified I'm going to do something wrong and ruin this. I slipped and slow fell on my butt from my bed last night but the only thing that was hurt was my pride and my tailbone. I am getting my walking in ...5 min about every other hour.

My preop diet doesn't start until Sunday. Soft foods then and Monday afternoon only broth. How about you?
I have two weeks of 3-4 shakes a day, and lean chicken/tuna and veggies for dinner, have other options but that has been working for me. Monday I will do Clear Liquids mainly to be prepared.

14 days po!

my infection is clearing up (still red around incision but no discharge shine monday) and I am finally slowly loosing the Water weight from the er visit and seeing progress!

11/3 sw 351.4

11/17 cw 338

(for reference, 11/13 when i got home from er i was 352! and january 2022 i was 440)

still working on liquids but close to the 64 oz … tolerating most full liquids fine but starting to get heaviness with dairy so dialing back a little there… no desire to eat or drink so i am just sipping trying to get my ounces … changing back to water from sf beverages in case that’s what’s influencing my lack of thirst (had thought flavor would be a good thing)

Friday my diet changes from full liquids to purée! will have some refried Beans and sweet potatoes this weekend sometime :)

Day 14th of preop starting today. I have been feeling hungry the last 2 days at night, could be that I decreased my veggie portion without notice or my cycle messing with hormones. But no cheating allowed. Tomorrow I'm supposed to eat light and hydrate, so I will have scrambled eggs and keep the rest of the day with liquids only and after 8, clear liquids.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
