For Those Who Got To Eat Soft Foods Soon Out
Ljp replied to Kiki Von Moonshine's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I have noticed on here & searching the net that each dr. Has their own preference on what their patient can have. My dr. Put me on liquids for 3wks then start adding soft foods, which is what I hv been trying. If i can tolerate it, he said it was fine. -
Thank you guys for all the information. I appreciate it very much.
-
I have a hard with liquids but I xan do this very good. 1/2 yoplait light strawberry (any flavor will work) pineapple juice (less than 1/4, it really dowsnt take much 1/2 cup of ice Put all in blender, pulse it. Awesome drink to get fluids in you. Would love more liquid recipes.
-
I appreciate your update. My doctor is the one tht said it ws ok & also gave me juice in the hosp. I didnt however realize abt the Greek yogurt until reading in the forums so, im for sure going to try tht. I hv been doing great, but fluids are the hardest to get dwn. I knw im not getting enough protien. I havent found a protein drink i can intake yet.
-
I actually use a whole yoplait but ot does make a lot.

I used the campbell chicken noodle for my broth. Taste a lot better. My stomach cldnt tolerate tomatoe soup. I also use the wellness liquid 1000gm Calcium at night, 2 flintstone multi in the afternoon & b12 sublin in the morning.

I am 3wks out & I still hv a hard time with fluids period. Hot tea seems to be the best for me to drink. I ws a water drinker before surgery & now I just cant drink it hardly.
-
Its been 3wks. I mainly eat: yoplait light yogurt, sugar free jello & popsicles, & broth. I hv started implementing more foods. Mash potatoes & gravy i do good with but i still hv A little problems with refried beans. Tomorrow i was going to try to broil fish. Does anyone have any food idea sugestions?

Stall Or Starvation?
Ljp replied to justmeandmysleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow my doctor wont allow my to wrk out until after a month. He doesnt even want me to walk or lift anything over 25 lbs for 4wks. Im on my 3rd wk. Im actually not getting a lot of protien during this time either. I dont tolerate fluids very well. I hv to take very small drinks. -

My cousin has lost 100 lbs since May 5th his day of surgery. I on the other hand am losing slower. Everyone is different. At least you are eating something 6 times a day. Thats better than nothing.

Very sry you are going thru this & will be praying for you. I knw it must be hard but dont get frustrated, you will loose. Remember for just a normal surgery, it takes time before your stomach can heal & intake food so with your complications, it may take more time for adjustment. Keep your head up. -
I am 3 weeks out. I had my surgery on July 16. I weighed twice once a week & the scale never moved. I weighed again & had lost abt 10 lbs. I knw tht its impossible not to loose weight w the amt of food im eating. So dont get discourged, it will come up. Inches are coming off, i can tell in my clothes.
