3 Days Post Op Tmi Question



Recommended Posts

O, I'm on full liquids for the next 2 weeks. Protein Drinks, sf Jello and popsicles and broth. What else did you havewhileon full liquids? The sf stuff is giving me diarrhea and I'm nervous about dehydration as a result of that. Thoughts?

After a week or so, you should be able to move on to creamy Soups. After two weeks, mushies. Be sure to drink Water, lots of water!

When I was on full liquids, I had pudding, Protein shakes, creamed Soup, cooked Cereal, milk, low fat yogert. I also love the BariWise flavored Protein drinks, such as lemonade, rasp lemonade, orange, grape. They are awesome. Also love the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury protien shakes. MAke them into smoothies or add frozen fruit and blend and then put them in popsicle molds and into the freezer for a great treat!

Home made Soups, pumpkin, veggie, chicken, just put them through the blender till liquid. I couldn't do the Protein Shakes any more after my op. a month of them was enough to turn me off them forever. You have to be careful with the diet products as they do give you diarrhea. To stay hydrated I drank two liters of Water a day and chamomile or green tea with no sugar. As long as you keep your fluids up you'll be fine and eventually your bathroom habits will settle. Best of luck to you!!!

Casey. I have the same diet rules as you. And like you I'm running to the bathroom in horror!!! It's awful! I'm not getting the fluids in bc I just can't. I feel really gross if I try. My body hates the Protein shakes. I haven't gotten the creamy Soups yet bc I haven't gone shipping. But I did drain chicken noodle and drank the liquid and gave the noodles to my dog!! I don't know what we are gonna do except for STAY CLOSE TO TOILET!

I had the same issue, that is once I started "going" again (about 3 days post op). I called the Dr about it and she said "when you only put liquid in, you only get liquid out." I was told not to worry about as long as I was keeping my fluids up. Once I moved on to thicker Soups, it got better.

      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.
