Oh man, i had what somone else had for their first meal after gastric... PINTOS and CHEESE from taco bell... ate about 3/4ths... now i know what full feeling feels like after gastric bypass a tad different... but ive been satisfied for hours now... pintos and beans is prolly a lil too high in fat to eat all the time but it was quite good, went out and bought a bunch of foods like string cheese deli meats cottage cheese stuff like that... felt good to have somthing that taste good hehe

Thumbs up Congrats

Qweets:

Congratulations on your awesome weight loss! Being able to eat "real" foods is a tremendous boost. Just be careful with your choices. Now's the time to establish good eating habits. Take full advantage of it. When you're long-term post-op, you'll be thankful you did!

Good luck with your journey. You're doing a fabulous job!

You darn guys and your super fast losses!!!! Congrats! That is great! Cottage cheese was a real life saver for me. be cautious with the deli meats, they can be quite stringy. I still have to be cautious with those. Chew very well! Puree what you can stand to puree! There is a reason the doc gives you those orders. We have a big variation of docs protocals around here and that doesn't mean anyone is wrong they are all just different, but you need to follow your orders! I have read some stuff people have ate early out and I'm not judging but there is no way I would have even tried it! I'm not preaching (okay maybe a little) I'm just concerned and don't want anybody to have problems over eating too soon!
