Hi , you seem to be doing great and recovering well from the op. Just follow what the hospital/surgeon tells you as all have different views on these things.
Thanks @Ian2Big how are you getting on??

Hi @Carby2barbie really pleased that you're doing so well I'm feeling much better this week just tired, I found protein shakes to heavy for me so advised by the dietitian to have milk and soups supplemented with marvel milk powder, which wasn't so heavy! Today is my fist day of puréed food managed one tiny pot of fromagefrais but didn't enjoy it as it was way too sweet for me! My plan for dinner is mashed potato with beans and a little bit of cheese blended together (should be ok for protein I hope!) I will still have some soup because I don't want to overdo the eating on my first day! Xx
It was absolutely delicious food tasted so yummy lolYes that's a good idea you don't wanna push it on your first time on the puréed! That sounds delicious! Have you craved anything?? Looking forward to hearing how you get on xx

I used 3 bits of Asda frozen mash, 2 desert spoons of baked beans and a sprinkle of mature cheddar then all blended together. Managed most of it but stopped when I felt full and I'm still not hungry now so for tea I think I will have soup and then for supper that skyr yogurt (really good for protein)
When I came back from Cuba and started my pre op diet I was 20st 13lb, day of surgery I was 19.7st last time I weighed myself was 3 days ago and I was 18.5st so really pleased The skyr 100g is 11g protein and 4g sugar so not too bad!Ooo are they? That's good to know! Are they sugar free??
Well done you sounds lovely!!
How much have you lost now? Sorry I only noticed your stats weren't there. Xxxxx
Thank you, my op was 2 weeks ago today xxWell done you should be so proud!!! It's not been that long since you had your op is it??
Thank you, my op was 2 weeks ago today xx
Its done me the world of good reading your posts, it reminds me there is such a thing as post op.
I don't know which op i'm having yet. I asked my surgeon for the bypass and he says he will go into the op with the intention of doing a bypass but because of my size he might have to give me a sleeve.. so its either or, i wont know until its over.
How are you going with the liquid stage?[/QUOTE
Absolutely fine a lot easier than I thought it would be! And I only have a week left and it seems like nothing. Lots of sipping water throughout the day. I did do a lot of pre planning before my op so it has been nice and easy and haven't really had to think about it.
And after the pre op diet it's fine. Xx
