Dr. Kelly Patients: Confused By Post Op Meal Plan...



Recommended Posts

Cece (love her but she is hard to understand) went over it but i was not following very well. I'm reading it but it still isn't clear..

It says Day 8 add milk.

Day 10 add Protein Shakes (I got the OK to skip to this already because i was kinda weak/shaky)

When can we add things like yogurt, pudding etc...

When can we add pureed foods? (i.e. egg salad in a blender, or chicken with a little chicken stock)

I feel SO MUCH better eating Protein and think it will improve with more 'real' food.. yet i don't want to push anything....

I think "mushies" which I'm understanding to be like mashed potatoes or soft things but with texture are day 22.. but can we have purees before then? (blended soft)

?

The post op diet instructions weren't very clear from me either. I went to a weight loss seminar in the US before I settled on going to Dr. Kelly. They gave me a booklet that went over dietary and lifestyle direction very thoroughly. If you will PM me, I would be happy to email you.

Pam was also sleeved by Dr. Kelly a few days after me, and she sent me an email that clarified things a little better. I can forward that to you as well.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
