Fars

Starting 26 and can’t wait - allowed decaf tea and coffee as tolerated - what’s your experience with coffee? How did you make profee? What was a days eating like to wean off shakes and switch to food like? How was the first bite?

My Surgeon said itching denotes healing and not to put anything on it

Coffee with protein shake or powder

Which protein powder did you use?

Egg salad sounds nice any recipe please ?

I do like beans - how did you make the tuna and chicken salad?

Oooh love how you describe it - I start day after tomorrow and am excited although a little apprehensive too on how it goes down stuff like would I throw up? Can my stomach digest it ok and a gazillion other what ifs which SF syrup brand do you use? I like caramel and hazelnut but haven’t tried any so any suggestions would be very welcome my prog has a post op liquid diet inc cream based soups and then goes straight to soft so no puree stage per se no crackers bread pasta rice in soft food otherwise the faux toast sounds yum

What else are you having ? I start soft on three days

Oooh that’s so on the cards but what else?

Thanks much i was having profess before and some of these sound amazing more soft food ideas would be very welcome - basically am allowed eggs, soft cheese, all seafood except shrimp and ground meat plus non starchy veggies

My program allows both but hesitant about trying about three weeks post op.any experience ?

My program gave me An abdominal binder with a Velcro close to tighten as I wajted Wearing it snug for the first five days helped me ommeneely just allow some airtime to allow sweat to dry

Is this normal for everyone or specific to any age group or ppl who have to anti clot meds post op?

Yes definitely waiting - wonder how long when I can have it

It’s allowed within my plan, both pre and post op as long as it’s non caffeinated but wanted to know others experience and if I should hold off

6 days of post op liquids to go and Campbell and Lipton soups SUCK! Any other suggestions?

Any particular flavor other than broccoli

Looking for store version Campbell was horrid

Had mine June 5, first procedure ever and was nervous. Take it a day at a time

About 2 weeks post gastric sleeve and 2/3 days back feel sore/ heaviness in middle right abdomen - doc says it’s the inner sleeves healing but wonder why it developed 2-3 days before and not after surgery Anyone has similar experience?

Mine isn’t constant - I also feel very tired on exertion but mainly my shoulders if that makes any sense petrified about straining when going to the loo for inner stitches

This is a major test of faith I guess - not succumbing to the what if while being realistic mine settled on rest. Fingers crossed for complete smooth recovery

Couldn’t stomach premier protein post gastric sleeve - 2 weeks out and my saviour is the seeq protein water, whey with fair life and Panera broccoli soup

Is your thyroid ok?
