Rake Lane/North Tyneside Update

The bugs going around lately are lasting ages my mams had a cold since November. At least you know it's a bug nothing serious :) your dinner sounds lovely yum yum, I'm only manage 3 meals and yesterday it was lucky if that was 300cal. Because we have to wait 1 hour after eating for a drink don't no how we are meant to get in snacks as it's not worth the 1 hour 30 mins you can't drink say for a little bit of food, but I'm sure we will all get their it's just early days for us. Iv just had soup and added cheese to up cals and might have hot milk in an hour. How's your scars healing ? X x x
 
soup with cheese sounds lushhhhhhhhhhhhhh!.
i had a scrambled egg with a bit of grated cheese in earlier and was full after 4 mouthfuls (tea spoon size)..thank god i have a dog ...hes loving it hahaha.
yeh i agree there like n i only manage 4 things at a push wen i wasnt ill with bug.
def feelin better 2day tho n jst had a yoghurt and then wil b havin chicken dinner later and im guna try get a cuppa soup in a bit later 2 make it the 4. it does say 4-6 so im not worried about the extra 2 meals/snacks lol xxx
 
Having tea early today I'm having meatballs in gravy and mash all pureed I'm going to try and get a cuppa soup before bed too :) then that will make me 4 too. Hahaha my dogs loving it too he's never had so many nice meals lol. X
 
Well had tea and 10 mins later started to get hot, feel sick, pains in the stomach followed by toilet. Still feel very ruff :( I have heard of sleevers that do dump, do you think it was dumping? Not a nice feeling if it is x
 
Dixie I had a sleeve on 8th dec. On Christmas day had one road tie mashed up with a tiny bit of bread sauce, gravy and a slice of carrot , and it went down ok. Boxing day I thought I'd blend it to get it down easier, and put in a tiny bit of sausage, then felt ill for 2 hours. My nurse said sausage is notorious post op. so I am wondering if the meatball had the same effect on you?

Crackers x
 
Hi crackers it does sound like it. I still feel ill but a bit better than before :) might be the fat in the meat as sausage is made up of rubbish too so might leave both for a few months and try again. Hehehe I thought having a sleeve that I would be able to eat anything just in smaller portions. How wrong was I lol I also struggle with weetabix had 2 tea spoons and had to stop. Guess it will be a learning curve. Thanks for the advice will def be giving processed meat a miss for a while x x x

It is hard but only 4 weeks of pureed, counting down days though. Cant wait to eat a fish finger lol. Would you not eat more sweet stuff like yogurt, low fat custard and semolina with a bit soup mixed in some where through the day. Its hard to get protein in on pureed because they don't puree very well might just have to up milky drinks. X
 
I could manage sweet stuff if on its own and not mixed. But the thought of mixing a meal up and make it a purée makes me feel ill lol
 
If u blend ur foods seperatley and put them in ice cube trays u shud manage ur phobia....will jst b like dishin out the real deal....suzie...ive had meat balls a few times sharin them with the baby and was fine....not had the dumping syndrome so far but we will all be dif with dif foods...def a learning curve for is!!! Wonder wat mine wil b lol...al b scared to try stuff outside home incase it happens hahaha....guess big mac meal is out the question eh!!!! Lol xxx
 
good luck hun n well dun on weight loss ;-)

Had a much better day today with eating, actimel for breakfast, low fat custard for dinner and cheesy mash and gravy for tea. I definitely think I'm going to struggle with meat but had a milky drink through the day and lots of tea. Just trying to lay off meat for a couple of days to give my pouch a rest. Going to have a cuppa soup soon as didn't manage it yesterday as still felt ruff. Hope everyones doing well and had a nice weekend x x x
 
Yes I think I would manage it if I freezes separate items and ate them separately thats eased my mind a bit thanks
