Yeah!  You know I noticed.. this sleeve is really a funny thing.  Now today.. I can barely eat a a spoonful of the spicy stuff.. lol!!


Oh well.. it's all good.    I'll figure it out as I go.

Ahhh cool.. I've had a little spicy pureed red beans and love it!   

Maybe the equivalent of a couple tablespoons and it was heaven.. I also take Prolesec (spelling)   and have been for a couple years..   So, haven't had much of a problem. 


I couldn't imagine why it would be a problem if it was sitting fine with me..   Cool!  Thanks for responding!!

Hi!

Wondering how soon you were eating anything spicy.. hot.. after surgery.   I know everyone is different and Dr's seem to have different schedules for thier patients.. but, I'm just curiuos.

I love spicy.. hot.. anything.    Hotsauce, peppers.. etc...


And, what would be wrong with adding hot or spicy to your mushies and thicker soups?

Thanks..

Kelley

Oh yeah!!  Glad you mentioned Trader Joes!  I haven't been there in years!  


Okay cool.. I was wondering about Bean Soups.. etc.. altho I never liked beans.. I'm craving them now!!  It's the oddest thing this surgery.. Beans!!

Okay.. and they sell the Greek Yogurt too?   I think that's the Yogurt I keep hearing about..


Cool!  Thanks!!

Hi Kaynd,

Sorry to barge in here.. but just wondering what a 5-day pouch test is?   I've seen it a couple times in the last week or so.. but not sure what it is?


Thanks! 

Kelley

Ahh.. cool. thanks for the heads up.. that's a good way of putting it..  " -  just beware of that "I feel great" feeling. It is not your friend. -  "

That there.. is something I'll remember and think about later..  lol!! omgg.. yes.. I'll remember that and take it a bit easier..   

I really appreciate you all responding and helping me out  ;  )

Kelley

Ahh cool.. then I don't feel so bad then.. I was thinking.. geez.. I know I haven't done anything wrong! 

Cool.. I'll take it in stride... and be happy for the days I can drink!

Thanks MsShell!

Yeah.. it's just the oddest thing..  

Quick question?    Not that I'm craving any.. cause another odd thing I'm realizing.. I'm craving Beans!  Good grief.. I don't even like beans!!  lol.. omg..

But, question.. are you eating any rice at this point?   Or say.. what's the one carb you do eat.. say the main one?

Thanks.. you really are a wealth of info. I've read your blog and have really enjoyed it.   Thanks for taking the time to do all that  ;  )

Today.. I'm taking almost regular drinks of my Crystal Lite? 

Now I see how people get worried sooo easy.     Okay.. had VSG on the 19th.  Been feeling okay I guess..  last night.. I could NOT take another sip of Chicken broth so.. I had hubby buy me a can of Campbells Chicken Gumbo.  
I didn't have ANYTHING - ANYTHING but several spoonfuls of the CLEAR JUICE  from the soup and immediately felt 100% better.    Not one speck of food did I swallow.  But, felt sooo much better.
Oh.. let me add.. was having a hard time getting in my proteins as well.. but.. another story..
But today!!  Omggggg.. I feel sooo much better!  Omgg.. where yesterday I could barely get a sip to go down.. today.. I'm drinking like before the surgery...

Okay.. not complaining.. just an observation?  Love to hear comments on your experience like this?

p.s.. feeling soo good.. i'm doing some much needed house cleaning.. ;  )

Woot Mikpas!!
