You know, we all learn from our mistakes....I made many mistakes too: bought too much protein powder that I couldn't stand post-op (taste did change post-op), tried soups with mixed veggies to discover that I couldn't stand cruciferous veggies anymore (stomach cramps) and I should try one food at a time only, at six months I was drinking too much water and too fast after exercise, came up etc etc...
But it's simple to follow the guideline and stay safe. Have it near you and read it when you are not sure.
I did read many great books about bariatric surgery or look online and find info!
Many great videos on youtube Dr Weiner or Dr A, I like them both. Always good advice.
Right now you are in the first month, it was not a walk in the park for me, I was really tired. But things got better little by little. It was all worth it!
You will have multiple stalls so don't look at the scale more than once or twice a week. You will lose weight if you stay focused on your program.
And if you have questions, come in here! many friends will take a few minutes to answer a fellow sleever!
Take care.
