I'm 21 days post op and my plan says I can have soft foods (fish, chicken,tuna, some soft veggies) etc. My question is what are some things you may have tried at this point? How did u cook it? How did ur stomach handle it? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I don't want my experience to scare u but when they woke me up from surgery I thought I was having a heart attack. I remember yelling ( so I thought but I really wasn't because of I was in and out of it) my chest hurt, my chest, my chest hurt. Over and over. They was confident it was gas but they did do a ekg, and chest X-ray for precautions. Thank God it was gas but they could of warned me. So apparently people have gas in different places and I do happen to have mine in my chest. It slowly went away each day. Walking does help move it around.

I took 2 weeks off. Which was perfect for me. I was only in pain, sore, and tender for a lil over a week. By the time I went back I was painless, and full of energy. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Question I am still in the full liquid stage and was wondering if I can have a smoothie from smoothie king. They do not have sugar free smoothies because of the natural sugar in the smoothie I may choose. But I can choose not to add the added sugar they use to sweeten the smoothie plus I can add Protein.

Update: it was nasty. I definitely like the premier shakes I've been drinking. It was to watery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm a week out and I am surviving off Protein shakes, sugar free popsicles, Water, and crystal lite. I don't want anything puréed. The look of puréed food discuss me. I will just wait to soft foods and I could have soft foods at 14 days out. 7 days left. I can't wait! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Question? I am one week post out and on full liquids. Do u guys think I can have chili with out the added ingredients. Literally just mix up the chili pack and eat that. It sounds good in my head. Lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Well I called and they said no. Such a disappointment but the reason being is because of the spice. I can add season like all season or Tony's but nothing spicy. I'm glad I checked. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@suzzzz yes that what I meant lol just didn't know how to put it. But I just came from the store I'm gone add chili flavor to tomato soup. Since the recipe calls for tomato sauce I'm just substituting. Hope it comes out ok. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm so excited I'm down 16lbs n it's only been 5 days since surgery. (Mostly Fluid but hey I'm happy) Also Although my family is enjoying a traditional Christmas dinner. I am enjoying a non sugar free lemonade. (Don't panic I only drunk maybe 2 oz.) and Gumbo ( only the liquid n strained). Only for today... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm so jealous! I had surgery on the 20th. I am counting the days to I can have soft foods like tuna. I have never been so excited to eat tuna in my life. LoL!!! Hopefully I will be able to have them in 10 more days... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I space out mines Protein shakes. Example 4oz Breakfast, 4oz lunch,4oz for dinner. Snacks between meals popsicles, yogurt. If I eat Soup for lunch or dinner I will replace a snack with 4 oz of shake. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved on the 20th. And I am now counting my days until soft foods. I am not as hungry as I thought I would be. But I'm definitely going through the craving stage. I'm just ready for different textures of food. The liquid is boring. LoL!!! Besides that I feel like I'm not eating enough. Or should I say drinking enough. In a days time I have only drunk 1 whole Protein shake,( broken down into 3 different meals) 1/2 cup of soup, and 2 sugar free popsicles. And I'm definitely struggling to drink 64 oz of Water I can barely get down 1 whole bottle of water through out the day. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
