Voices Of Reason/experience. I Am 12 Days Post Op.



Recommended Posts

Hello all

long time lurker first time poster.

I am now as the title says 12 Days post op and feel fabulous. I am in no pain, no incision pain, walking generally back to normal and have been so for the past 5 days.

I am really concerned/becomming obessed with seeking answers because I can drink a glass of Water no problem, I had two scrambled eggs with cottage cheese for Breakfast no problem, tube of yogure 125ml for lunch and drink in between. I think I feel like i have no restriction and am worried i will fail at weightloss because i will pig out like i did pre sleeve.

I dont want to be fat any more, i thought i would get slim with this tool but i didnt think after reading everyone elses journey that it would feel like normal just less hungry.

I have checked with my surgeon and he said everyone heals different and wait till i am on solid or mushy foods but stick with the plan.

I am on pureed at the moment.

can i actually fail? do people not loose weight. I will be totally devosated - i just cant cope thinking its not going to work.

My dietician asked for a 3 day food diary but said it was unusual that I could easily eat two eggs without discomfort or nausia and it scared me. Please dont scare me I am very anxious at the moment.

      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?

      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.
