Andy,

Everyone is different.  I stuck to the 97-98% fat free stuff at first but have not had any issues with fat.  Honestly, it's alot of trial and error to find out what you can and cannot tolerate.  Perhaps try a little bit and see how it sits?

Good Luck!
Heather

Andy,
Its seems like a slow dull process, but it get better.  I started experimenting about 3 mos out and was very careful.  I had a couple of BAD experiences early on and  developed the "pouch rules" respect it deserved.
I also learned that the early period was my learning period.  I needed to change food choices.  I did'nt want to do end runs with substitutes for my earlier choices, I needed to eat differently
Good luck

I agree with what everyone has said - it truly is trial and error for each of us. I also liked the Campbells Cream of Shrimp in the beginning. I did not know it existed until I was looking for something new to try.

Just have half of it and it will only be 4 grams.  How are you feeling.  I sent you a PM on OH. 

Take care and talk with you soon.

 

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

I lived off of that during the beginning!  I used the lower fat version though.

Wow! I didn't realize how different in the beginning the surgeries are. After having VSG, your 1st, 2nd & 3rd day it's all about the juice. Welcome to your juice party, that is all until the 4th day when you start with the protein shakes, and all liquids under 10 calories. So, consider yourself lucky, just take it slow. Sick is sick no mater what WLS you have!  Good Luck, Leslie
