Hello all, I'm on the pureed stage and I need some recipes or different foods to try. Please share
-
So I am now 4 days postop, and I am using the little medicine cups to make sure I take small sips. I just don't know if I am feeling full because overall I am just not hungry? I really just drink my Protein shakes because I know I need to get something in. What would you eat all day during the full liquid stage after surgery? Also would anyone use Gas-X strips? I have this air pain feeling near my hip area and it bothers me so bad!
-
Thank you all, I am making sure to drink alot. I am now on pureed food!
-
What kind of Protein Powder would you use?
-
4 days postop, I can't believe I did it
-
Yes, all I have to say is while I was at the hospital it felt like I was in more pain then I have been since I got home. At home I feel so much better, I slept well and been resting. Now I'm just really thirsty but other than that I feel better!

I meant to put I was 3 days post op, my surgery was on the 19th. Yes when I was in the hospital they gave me some anti-nausea medicine also. It's probably the side effects of the medication I had. But I am still thirsty and I don't know what to do to quench my thirst lol.

Hi all, so tomorrow is the BIG day!! I am so nervous and excited but I have been so full of nerves all day. Pray for me!

Hi all, I might be discharged today just waiting for my doctor. The first day wasn't bad, but at night it was for me. I'm finally on clear liquids only waiting for my doctor to advance me to full liquids. Other than that, I'm walking around and just have pain and soreness when using abdominal muscles. Other than that, I want to go home.

I know it's TMI, but I just started my preop diet today and I have been in the restroom constantly, is anyone having this problem or had this problem? Tell me I'm not alone lol.

Headache on liquid diet
Elyse519 replied to Elvenprincess's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am on day 9 of preop diet, and I had a horrible headache this morning I had to take some Tylenol. I've only had a headache maybe 3 times during these 9 days. -
Oh how I wish I could have pudding and fruit!! Stay strong! It's tough, I am on day 9 of preop liquid diet with 5 days until surgery. I have 4 1/2 Protein shakes a day, 2 sugar free popsicles, sugar free jello, and broth at times (but I haven't been hungry so much). I see food and I get hungry but I want solid food! Then again, I am almost there!! So hang in there!

Hello I am on day 3 of preop Liquid diet and I'm on my second shake right now, but I am full. I cannot finish it. Has anyone had or having this problem?
-
Same here!! In the morning and around lunch I have a harder time with my shakes then at night. I never thought I would be able to do this liquid diet but it really hasn't been that bad life some say. It really makes me feel better.
-
Thank you all for sharing your experiences, I will probably switch between both

Hi I've seen some people recommend a binder for after surgery? Did anybody use one? Did it help you? Where did you get it? Thanks you
