Skipped to "Normal" Foods
Aug 03, 2008
I am supposed to be on the pureed diet still but I have had enough of mashed potatoes and cottage cheese. I am chewing all my food really well and haven't had any problems with it..... knock on wood! I am down to 228 lbs from 245 lbs and I just 12 days out - VERY EXCITED at my progress! Hopefully this trend will continue. My only problems so far are that I am never hungry so I go all day without eating and also I haven't been able to find a multivitamin or a protein powder that I can stomach. Today I tried Flintstones vitamins and those were just as bad as the others I have tried. I'm just going to have to suck it up and deal with the taste I suppose and hope I don't throw up.
5 days out and doing great!!

I had RNY surgery on Monday (7/21/2008) and am feeling pretty good. I gained 12 lbs in the hospital and today I am finally back down to my starting weight - 242lbs. I am not supposed to start my pureed diet until Monday but I'm cheating a little here and there. So far I have tried... mashed potatoes, beans and cheese, and tuna with mayo. All has settled well with my new tummy.
