I thought I was going to die on all that liquid and gross things like yogurt and protein shakes that my sleeve does not agree with. So far I've had a stick of colby jack cheese and that's a lot compared to the fact that I was barely getting 250 calories on the liquid/pureed stage...so glad that's over. Tomorrow I plan to have egg whites for breakfast...whooo hooo, maybe even tuna fish for lunch...the world is my oyster

What post op day are you?  Just curious. I am on a pureed pre op diet and really bored. Sticking with it though. Figure it will be a long time for regular food.

Don't be surprised if you don't enjoy some of your foods now.  I'm 9 weeks post-op and I still can only eat about 2.5 ounces of dense protein. Sometimes I love it and sometimes it's a chore that I just have to do, even when I could care less. I'm like you though--I don't like to pu**** I've only had a couple of things disagree with me. thankfully I never threw up, but I had a couple hours of discomfort and misery.  I've learned to stop at a certain point when my body gives the signal. I know that if I keep eating because it tastes good or I'm trying to get extra protein in, I will pay for it.

Hope you enjoy your egg whites.
