When did you start purees
tlh908 replied to Girly24's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Different Doctors, Different Rules...pre and post op...
tlh908 replied to fccm04's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I has pureed food on day 2 the hospital and was supposed to be on pureed food for 2 months. At the 1 month appointment the NUT told me anything I could with a plastic fork was ok. I ate mostly ham which I ground up very fine by chewing. I never liked blended food. -
Post Op diet- Pureed phase right away?
tlh908 replied to snowkitten's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I ate a lot of ham and refried Beans and cheese and brocoli Soup. I was told anything that could be cut with a plastic fork was okay. -
Post Op diet- Pureed phase right away?
tlh908 replied to snowkitten's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was on liquids only a day and then went straight to pureed. I have lost 70 pounds in 3 months so it works. They said they did it to prevent stenosis. Personally I hated pureed food so I ate mostly liquids like refried Beans anyways. Good luck. -
They told us that we 20% of sleevers experience dumping syndrome. That is quite a bit lower than gastric bypass.

Luckily my MD only had a special diet for the day before. Everything went fine for me with no liver reduction diet. -
Hottub 3 weeks after surgery?
tlh908 replied to Jnette's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine said no baths for 2 weeks. Each MD is different, I'd check with their office to be sure. -
I officially HATE protein shakes!
tlh908 replied to yolicious1's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have tried quite a few protein shakes. I found out about nectar protein shakes and I have really enjoyed those. They taste a lot like fruit juices and they go down easy. -
Am I the only person who wasn't given a pre-op diet?
tlh908 replied to G33kg1rl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have surgery scheduled in 2 weeks, I was also only given a day before preop diet. I am going to a bariatric COE in Indiana so they know what they are doing. I did question them to be sure.
