What were you eating at a week out?



Recommended Posts

I am one week post-op and I am just curious to see what others have eaten around this time period and how much. Right now I am getting in 60oz of Water, only about 30g of Protein but steadily climbing, one can of veggie Soup liquified and spead through out the day, and one sugar free popsicle thats only 100cals.

Sound pretty normal?

Oh wow, yeah I'm only allowed to have pure liquified stuff so that's why I put my veggie Soup in a blender. I am supposed to do liquids for 3 weeks and then move on to mushies.

Water, popsicles, Jello, crystal lite, broth from caldo de pollo (chicken soup), Isopure 2-3 oz at a time. I highly recommend Isopure because it's a Protein Drink (like a punch) and has 40 g of Protein in 20 oz. I buy mine at GNC but I think u can buy it over the internet also.

I had my surgery on 2/19/2011 and I am eating about the same. I get my 64oz of Water in I also get my Protein 40-60 grams. I eat a ton of popsicles buy my are 15 calories surger free. I bought som French Onion broth at Walmart so I eat that or chicken broth for dinner. I don't like Jello so I can't force myself to eat it. I have tried but can't do it. I feel great. Just a little sore.

I had my surgery 2-15 and eat yogurt, popsicles, Protein Shakes (muscle milk), and a lot of Soups. I just eat the broth but have had clam chowder, brocolli cheese from togos and I am having hot and sour Soup from a chinese restaurant now. I lost 18 pounds thus far and I am feeling pretty good. I am not starving either but can't wait to eat more normal food soon. Good luck and hang in there.

I was on Clear Liquids but I made sure i got my Protein in because if I didn't , I had NO energy!! I used Unjury chicken noodle Soup and Proasis Protein Shots. They have 25 grams of protein in a 2.9 oz bottle.

      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.
