Recommended Posts

Hey guess I'm Dee.. I had my surgery on March 12th... as of today all I've been eating is Soups (liquids only ofcourse) sugar free popsicles Jello and frozen yogurt, mashed potatoes ... I was told I can have egg salad tuna salad chili .. I can no longer stand the smell of eggs or tuna ( which both used to be my favorite) I'm craving everything but don't fall into temptation ... I need more variety or I'm gonna go nuts!! Any suggestions????

I also had my surgery on 3/12, and have had a hard time with the mushy food stage. I've been eating a lot of Greek yogurt (more protein) and unsweetened applesauce. We're going to attempt Shepard's pie tonight just to mix it up. I don't really have a desire to eat much of anything. I'm still mainly doing the Popsicles and Jello.< /p>

You should as your doctor first but the Lindora line of products offer a good variety of high Protein Soups, shakes, and drinks that you could probably have during this phase. Check out Lindora.com or you can go to Rite Aide if you have one close becuause they sell some of their products too.

I had my surgery on march 9th and I can have mashed potatoes as well but don't know what else to have. I'm going to try tuna and see how that goes.

I had my surgery on 3/6 and I'm still only allowed full liquids- totally jealous. I can't start mushies until next week but I'm totally in love with Isopure alpine punch. One bottle is 40grams of Protein. They're pricy but less than I used to pay for one trip through the fast food line:)

I also had a problem with the Protein Shakes I just stopped drinking them and tried eggs. Eggs made my stomach hurt even cooked soft with cheese in them. i got unfavored Protein and added it to mashed potatoes and Tomato Soup, I ate a lot of marinara sauce with cheese. I too dont like alot of stuff after surgery. It is better to eat somesthing you can keep down.

      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.
