Right on! Good for you... Today i ate two plain chicken wings i chewed really good and some tuna and egg salad a few bites. With a diet like this i think a bit of soft serve sounds yummy. Dairy also has protein. Still trying to drink more water. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T377A using BariatricPal mobile app

Just try to sip slower. And wait after sips to make sure it doesnt fill you up. If this doesnt help you should definitely call your surgeons office. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T377A using BariatricPal mobile app

Most-used kitchen gadgets/utensils after weight loss surgery?
ldfrausto replied to istytehcrawk's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Right but i dont have a gall bladder either. So if i crave fried chicken and french fries every so often this might ge a better option. I could also just bake them. I will look into it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T377A using BariatricPal mobile app -

I had bypass on 12-6 and am 18 lbs down. I also had gall bladder removed and hernia repaired so i still have wound vac due to complication and so not so worried about weight loss yet. Just want to eat now after liquid phase. Having challenges getting enough water. Any tips? HW. 263 SW. 208 CW. 190 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T377A using BariatricPal mobile app -

Wow i am also band to bypass and so glad to hear someone making same choice i did. I had bypass hernia repair and gall bladder removal on 12-6. I had a microscopic tear in my intestines during surgery that caused the drainage to abcess one of my laproscopic incisions that caused a large wound needing wound care but i am happy to say all my insides are healed and another few weeks with wound vac will see me good as new. I was on strick liquids for 3 wks and now almost done with soft food phase. I cant say i feel hunger or full the same way i used to but my brain still says eat and stop. I havent been sick and feel no nausea. My band was different as i still felt full satiation satisfaction feelings and now it feels more like hungry want something or no dont want food anymore but wouldnt call it full feeling. This is scary to me and some depression has set in but its all getting better! So happy to know i have a better chance at health now as i lost 100 lbs with band only to develop gall bladder issues that caused sickness that caused such huge hernia and band slippage that bypass really was best way for me. I only have 40 lbs to goal weight so for me it was preventative as i was starting to gain again. Obesity is a lifetime disease. We are all blessed for a chance to permenantly manage it.

Wow reading all these posts appreciate everyones views. I had RNY 12-6 and still have a wound vac from complications after surgery. I went 3 weeks on liquids and gotta say after that when introducing soft foods diet was last thing on my mind. If a few bites is all i can endure it doesnt matter to me about calories it matters about protein and it matters my stomach can handle it. So i try to drink water more as i am dehydrated and if every hour i can take a couple bites if its a cookie i would rather eat steak but my stomach cant take it so hey it was the holidays and i havent been sick so that means i am doing well. Lets all be gentle with ourselves. I have lost 20 lbs and only have 40 more to goal weight so these days just happy i am alive. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T377A using BariatricPal mobile app
