Considering the Sleeve - but I'm kind of Scared! What will Eating be like???

[Jeni]

I had sleeve surgery in June 2011. After the intial liquid and mashed for diets for 4-6 weeks (or whatever your doctor tells you), you can eat softer type foods and almost whatever you want. At this stage in my diet, the main things I avoid are carbs and sugars. I don't eat candy or regular ice cream really at all. I eat lots of protein.

It seems bad at the beginning, but gradually you can eat lots of different foods. Don't panic! It does get better over time.
