Today starts my Stage 4.  In my binder it says that I can now add ground  & shredded meat, whole grain pasta, whole grain pasta and brown rice. Has anyone else be able to eat rice and pasta so soon after their surgery?

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Not worth the carbs in weight loss mode. I don't plan on eating ANY bread, pasta, rice, et****il maintenance. Another motivation to reach goal!

I was sleeved the day after you. Your plan seems much more advanced than most. Let me know how the ground and shredded meat go. I didn't really get a "plan" due to my surgery being an emergency revision, and my surgeon going on vacation right after my procedure. I've just been asking advice from people on here and kinda winging it.

I thought my plan was a bit advanced too. But my NUT went over everything in detail with me in the hospital. She wrote down dates when to start each stage. And how long I should remain on the stage. I will for sure be moving pretty slow through this stage. I think after reading more on here, I will stay away from the brown rice, whole grain bread and whole grain pastas..

I've been wondering if I could add in some soft meats. I feel like I'm starving!

In Stage 3 I was able to eat pate' meats.. I didnt try anything because I'm not a fan of pate' meats. Were you giving any instructions on what you can eat?
