I don't know if this will help or if you'll even be able to read these, but here are photos of the stages of eating I got from my office. My surgeon and nutritionist are considered very conservative and use the same plan for sleeve and bypass patients. I am not endorsing anyone's use of this material. Just posting them for you to see.

I am in the same situation. I had the sleeve in 2014, and converted to bypass on 6/26. There were no classes beforehand, no handouts, no pre-op diet, etc. I see my surgeon tomorrow afternoon. I’ve been doing Protein Shakes, Protein Water, and sugar free popsicles.

If you need to get more Protein in you can do a chicken bone broth instead of regular broth. It’s not so yummy (salty...yuck...too much flavor for me) but has lots of Protein, is thin like broth, can be made warm and doesn’t get bogged down like shakes.

I was also allowed thinned cream of wheat or rice in the first two weeks. My surgeon had same diet for sleeve and bypass.

Best wishes.

You are to have about 400-600 Calories and drink every hour. Usually 2-3 oz only a a time. Proteins shake wait 30 min the skim milk wait 30 then Water then broth then Protein Shake. So every hour it should take about 20-30 minutes to drink your 2-3 oz then wait 30 min then on to the next. Usually this is for 2 weeks then it’s time for puréed. Go on to Pinterest and look for post bariatric surgery menu.

How long ago did you have your bypass? Is this the post-op diet phase immediately following the bypass or are you a few months out?

All I’ve been eating is chicken broth Tomato Soup and Water

All they gave me was the eat liquid for one week, mushy food for the following 2 weeks and as the weeks go by introduce solids food into my diet. My nutritionist did not give me any recipes on how to start it I could not afford to buy that book they were selling

This is my second time around. First time I had the sleeve now I have the RNY bypass but it seems that everything I have learned throughout the past couple of years I have thrown out the window. And I mean literally because no matter how hard I try to remember what I should eat I can’t remember what foods to eat now that I am on the liquid diet. Not sure if milk is even OK to drink I’m afraid to try anything. Any advice or recipes

I am having so much difficult with the nurses that are taking cake of me. I keep tell them I don’t fell well, I so I went over their head and called my facto he thinks it. Could be apendicitis has anyone every experience this what there you symptoms should I be freaking out PLEASE HELP!

Tomorrow the 29th for me at 1pm Torrance Memorial Hospital!!

Sent from my SM-G935T using BariatricPal mobile app

So I called the office and the told me to check my sugar level. Which I thought was weird cause I’m not diabetic but my sugar level were 67 they told me to eat something small and recheck the levels again. It was 120 after eating a chicken salad. They told me to eat two meals instead of the one of 300 cal or less. And not to eat anything after 8 tonight

Thanks I will keep that in mind

So I’m having surgery on Friday a revision of a sleeve to RNY bypass. They put me on the pre-op diet yesterday but I have been experiencing extreme nausea and dizziness has anyone ever experience this? Should I call my doctor? I don’t want him to postpone the surgery

The second picture was one week before surgery 315lbs. And the first picture is now at 185lbs you can definitely lose the weight you just have to work for it

I’m having surgery on Friday but it is a revision sleeve to RNY due to severe acid reflux

Hi I haven’t posted in a while I had a suite in July 2015 and have experienced severe acid reflux. Now I am up for a bypass. For those who have had sleeves and had this problem and had the surgery of bypass. Have you guys lost more weight?. Did the acid reflex go away?How much weight can I expect to lose? Is it going to be as painful as the first surgery?

I am currently wait to have a revision to the bypass I have severe acid reflux and I have the sleeve now so get the bypass to avoid further surgery

Hi everyone,

I am a year and seven months out surgery. My weight before surgery was 342lbs. and I am currently 185lbs. I have a serious amount of excess. My insurance covered my VSG and I have IEHP. But know I am left with this skin and I am ashamed to look at my self or even let my husband touch me. I was wondering for and one who has IEHP do they cover reconstructive surgery? I am do embarrassed to ask my doctor due to the fear of them saying no and crying in front of them. PLEASE HELP

So I am 21 weeks pregnant and came back to this forum to see if I could find some going through the same thing... I was HW347 SW297 and the weight I was before I got pregnant was 207 my CW is 216 I didn't gain any weight during the first trimester but I have been slowly gaining about a pound a week the doctor says it is normal and that I should worry but I am freaking out cause I've come a long way and all I can think about is the weight I put on with my other pregnancies. I am trying to eat healthy and staying away from everything I ate with my other kids that was not healthy but cravings for me have been difficult and I feel like I am not eating enough. How much calories is a pregnant women that has had WLS suppose to eat anyways? My pregnancy is considered high risk and I have been placed on complete bed rest[emoji17] but the baby seems healthy so far and I am just taking it one day at a time.

My sister showed me a picture of me at my highest weight of 347 lbs and until I saw this I couldn't see the difference, but now I can sitting at 205 lbs. and still have another 35-40 lbs. to go... I'm feeling blessed and thankful for my sleeve 8 months out ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1458971275.025295.jpg

Great work and you are a beautiful person and beautiful soul! Keep going!
