When Can I Eat Rice?



Recommended Posts

My surgeon told me to stay away from rice & Pasta & breads. Whole grain rice is something I plan on trying soon, just not much at one time. I also had whole wheat pasta(just a little) and that wasn't too bad.

Need some good travel Snacks and or munches any tips

Atkins Protein bars... delicious & nutritious! Especially chocolate chip granola & Peanut Butter granola

I was told soft foods and liquids are a must, post-op,bc the stomach is raw. If solid foods emter, it may affect the staples from preventing it from healing. Once healed, it may have an opening, which will lead to leaking and severe abdominal pain and possible surgery.

Same reason you can't eat fruit-too much acid that will wear away the fresh staples.

      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.
