vonego82 36 Posted October 12, 2012 when did u have surgery?! its probably best if you don't eat any meat until you're 4-6 months out. Only because, you will run the risk of stretchy your sleeve and/or experience horrible Constipation. And as for me, I can't have gravy or sauces on anything it makes me very nauseous, hahaha! is it the same for anyone else?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And as for me, I can't have gravy or sauces on anything it makes me very nauseous, hahaha! is it the same for anyone else?! My program allows pureed meats the 3rd week after surgery. Each program is different of course, but a chicken patty would be way too much for me to handle yet (I'm 4 1/2 weeks post). It's TOUGH to pace myself and to limit what I try but I think that by following my surgeon's conservative guidelines, I'm setting myself up for future long-term success.

cherrybombknits 184 Posted October 12, 2012 I'm so glad you found something that works for you. I'm only one week out but craving meat like crazy. Your "meal" sounds really good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DDFinn 118 Posted October 12, 2012 Sounds gross but try mixing some baby pureed meats in with your cream Soup. Hot soup felt so good in my sleeve at the beginning and it will help with Protein.< /p> 1 kmwheel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My surgeon and NUT sends patients home on puréed meat x2 weeks then soft moist meats/protein x4 weeks then any protein/meat after that. No veggies til week 9, no fruit til week 12, and no dairy til month 6. I have not had any probs with constipation. Oh, and no starches til 6 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think bananas are allowed week 6 or so (i had to start all over with my second surgery so while I'm past week six on the first go around, I never made it to that) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
