Pureed Food has saved me

I got to see the handsome Dr. Sonnanstine today. I couldn't talk him into a fill...I tried but he moved me to a pureed diet. Thank Goodness!!! The full liquids were driving me crazy I felt really hungry and hollow. So, I had pureed chicken salad, pureed bar-b-que and hummus. I think I am now in HEAVEN. I actually feel like I have eaten. So, for thoses of you that have recently had surgery...especially Lap Band...and still on the full liquid diet....IT GETS BETTER. I think I can make it 2 more weeks now. I get my first fill on 12/21. Yayyyyyyy!!!! I was down 10 pounds according to his scale....Mine says about 13 or 14 (naked). Either way, I couldn't do that in over 2 months at Weigh****chers.....Gotta Love It!!

Congrats on losing the pounds and thanks for answering some of my questions the other day, as well. I'm very happy for you. I hope all goes well on the pureed food, too. Keep us informed on how well you're doing, please. Amanda B

All right Mimi!!!!!!!!!!! You are on your way.

Congrats on the loss! and to the move to pureed! You are doing great, keep it up!

Way to go. I was going to call but Church took forever We went to frisches and let the girls use a coupon and I guess what I ate was too Greesy. I dumped Feel great this morning. Talk to you soon So proud of all you guys. love jane

Hi Mimi, I think I remember you from one of the group counseling classes. I had my surgery on the 27th and it was so nice to read your post and know that it gets better. This liquid stage really sucks. I have gotten to the point where I am so hungry when I smell foods being cooked. I feel like I could just eat them, but I know I would seriously pay for them later. I see Dr. Sonnanstine next Tuesday and will probably be moved up to pureed foods then. What other things are you eating now? Are you still drinking the protein shakes? Thanks again for the info and CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss. That is fantastic. ~Sara

Sara You have a message. It does get better. You will make it. It is all worth it! Mimi

WOO HOO Mimi!!! Congrats on the new diet and loss.

Ok - you need to give me the details! You had your surgery the week before me. So when exactly were you put on pureed food? What restrictions did he give you? How long total have you been on liquids? Then in two more weeks what will you be on? When do you go to normal foods? So many questions! You lucky girl!
