Mushie Stage



Recommended Posts

Okay....

tomorrow is my 2 week aniversary. I tried to eat some mushies.

My doc said applesauce, baby food consistancy foods, runny oatmeal.

I have tried for the last two days.. I dont think i'm ready.

I am so afraid to "PB" that i only eat about 2 oz and last night i got really nauseous. Not like i was going to throw up just really sick at my stomach.

Could it be because I have been on liquids for 19 days and my tummy is just not use to food it has to work to digest? I think I may go back to liquids for a couple more days.

Any suggestions for the mushie phase would be greatly appreciated.

Shari,

Yesterday was my 2 week anniversary and I just started mushies today. What did you eat that you thought made you sick? This morning I had 1/2 cup cream of wheat with skim milk, and for lunch I had 2 Tbs. of yogurt, 2 Tbs. of applesauce and 1 Tbs. of cottage cheese. I got stuffed, but felt really good. Tonight I had 2 Tbs. of mac and cheese (ff cheese, homemade) and a pear half. I couldn't eat it all and I threw it away. I just started to get hungry and I fixed me a revival soy shake, it is really good. I ordered it online at www.revivalsoy.com. They're shakes have lots of Protein and taste really good. I got the variety pack so that I can taste them before I order I flavor. chocolate gives me severe heartburn. My doctor told me to take Pepcid AC 2xs a day to help with the heartburn. It really works. I have gone the last 3 days without taking it though. Hang in there and keep posting!! Darla

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
