Favorite post-op foods



Recommended Posts

I'm coming up on 3 week post-op & getting so excited! I've gotten 25lbs off in almost a month. Really pushing myself to get to 30lbs by Thursday & then my next goal is to get another 30lbs off by December 12th. But I'm getting ready to start my 3rd week post-op and my transition off liquids but have no idea what to try and not try. Suggestions on what you ate would be lovely! Thank you :)

I'm assuming you're transitioning to mushies?

When I was mushies, the blender was my best friend, because anything I could blend into baby food consistency I could eat.

My favorite was putting chili and cream cheese into the blender. I also liked both chicken salad and tuna salad in the blender.

I've known people to even put spaghetti or raviolis in the blender.

Really, anything you can make baby food consistency, you can eat.

I went to full liquids and loved my creamed Soups, especially clam chowder. I still like Soup as a meal now and then. Yesterday I had a Vietnamese soup made with chicken and ginger broth with white meat chicken, rice noodles, bamboo shoots and bean sprouts. It's a good healthy option when you're allowed solid foods.

My favorite was about two ounces of canned chicken/tuna/salmon broken up a bit and mixed with about a third of an avocado. Add salt, pepper and ground mustard to taste!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
