October 11 Sleevers I have a question :)

HI I was just wondering of all the us that got sleeved on the 11th of October how many are on solid foods? Or where are you at on your stage of eating? Any problems or issues? Thanks for reading and for answering

GOD BLESS

I am a week behind you, oct 17th.  I am on soft foods, but start an on solids on the 17th.  So far, I haven't had any problems.  I've had softer meats that I cook longer to make them more tender and then chew a lot and eat slowly.  All is well over here.  Good luck and remember to listen to your body!

 Thank you Ready :) I am hoping to move to solids soon I am still on mushies because of some bumps in the road that I had. But soon I too am hoping to be on solids

GOD BLESS

I'm on mushies - soft food. I start dense meats and other regular foods on the 18th.

I've done fine with mushies, but I was very careful to introduce them one at a time. The reason why I started with chili was because I wanted to have something I could count on when I'm out running around or out with friends and my family.

So far the most "dense" meat I've tried was roast in the crock pot - cooked for 8 hours and was falling apart. I added a little broth and some mashed potatoes to it and it was yummy.

I'm gonna wait to try stea****il after Thanksgiving only because I've heard that it is a little tougher to digest at first. I'll stick to chicken, fish and turkey until then.

Are you still having pain when you eat?

Hi Raquel

We were sleeved on the same day & I was cleared to start solids at week 7. This past week. So far I'm doing good. I am trying a bite at a time just to see if my stomach agrees with my food & so far so good. I do feel more the dense protein sits heavier. I can do 1-1 1/2 oz. depending on what it is!!

Good luck to you!!
