Topic: RE: 1st post op visit...
Yeah, its completely normal. Your body just went through major surgery and is focusing on repairing itself and not burning fab. Good luck!! We are all in the same boat.
Topic: RE: eggs in 3rd stage or 4th?
I was allowed eggs in the puree stage. I would also do an egg salad, very very fine and mushy (in my magic bullet) and also pureed scrambled eggs with a little milk (before i found that I am now lactose intolerant) For some reason, eggs and my pouch dont get along! good luck!
Topic: RE: eggs in 3rd stage or 4th?
i can have eggs however they have to be pureed and i was told scrambled did not count as puree i have been making a mock egg salad with one egg 1/8 cup of cottage cheese a dab of mayo and a small squirt of mustard it is pretty good i blend all that up in my mini food processor( that i love).
* edit- the egg is hard boiled

Topic: 1st post op visit...
i had my surgery on 4/28... lost 17 lbs the 1st week... nothing since.. had my 1st postop doctors visit yesterday and he told me not to worry.. that initially i lost a lot of fat and water weight, and then while on liquids replenished the loss of liquids.. so he says the fat is still coming off, but being replaced by water... according to him i should see a change in the next week or 2... fingers crossed...
Topic: 12 day follow up
Wow everyone kept telling me that they could see a loss but I could not.When I weighed in at my visit yesterday I had lost 21 pounds since surgery on the 29th of April.I am so excited...
Topic: RE: No Interest in Food, whatsoever!
It gets so frustrating! I am allergic to shellfish and I have lost the taste for fish (tried some and I almost threw up at the taste, new tastebuds are so picky! haha). Man, I wish I could have some crab and shrimp! I love it! But as I've gotten older my allergy has gotten worse, so no more for me...boohoo
I am going to get some lactaid tomorrow and I need to restock my cheese supply hahaha The babybel cheese (the original in the red wax) is my fav and there is also this Cabernet Soaked Cheddar that is the most delicious cheese EVER, it's made by a dairy local to me (Fiscalini's)...
Right now protein powder is not working for me, because of the dairy...so I need to get some non-dairy powder-- my friend recommend J Robb's Egg White Protein, so I tried some and YUMMY!!! It was so good tasting! I definitely need to get some! I am going to try to make some popsicles with protein- good idea. I also cannot tolerate cottage cheese or yogurt... Man, this has been frustrating, but worth it, dont get me wrong!!!
