I believe as long as you are chewing everything to mush you should be fine.

If I could change anything I wouldn't go in to surgery worrying so much. All that stress was a waste of time. Be prepared but it's really way simpler than my mi.d had thought. Blessings

Oolong tea is a natural appetite suppressant. When I drink it food is the furthest thing from my mind. However it does have caffeine in it, so anyone that has that restriction should keep that in...
Hi, are there any current members who are in or near Clearwater Florida?

This was a good thread. Because I have personally witnessed my sisters before me struggle with following the rules for the sleeve. This makes me nervous cause I start my 3 week pre op diet soon. Its...
