6 Days Post Op And Excited To Eat Pureed Foods Tomorrow...lol



Recommended Posts

Got my band surgery on April 9th. Other then some shoulder pain and soreness in my adedomen I feel ok. I have just about enough of Clear Liquids for a life time. I been drinking alot of Water, Liquid Protein in my water and Jello. Unfortunately, I got my period on Friday and I was super craving chocolate but I am not hungry but I fought through it. Any suggestions on some good healthy food for the upcoming week? I can not possibly have anymore chicken broth........I am down 10 pounds this week and do believe it would be more but I haven't pooped since before my surgery, any suggestions for that as well?

The first day or two is a little rough due to the shoulder pain more then anything. As much as its painful you must get up and walk around. I know everyone says it but it is the only thing that made the gas pain get a little better. When are you getting your surgery?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
