Has anyone been able to eat solids on week 2 or 3. I have mostly liquids but sometimes I'll have an egg or a tiny piece or chicken or the soft vegetables from Soup. Also has anyone gained during their time of the month??

Let you body lead you in this. My surgeon has a schedule for patients to follow, I tried it but my body was not ready so I returned to liquids for an additional week. After that everything was fine.

And yes you can/may gain sure the time of the month. It should fall right back off once it's over.

I haven't gain during my period, but I did hit a stall.

Nto sure what your surgeon says but you shouldn't be eating solid food at 3 weeks. At this point I was on pureed. Don't risk harm to your tummy healing, stick with your pureed at this stage.

I haven't even started solid food yet and I am almost 5 weeks post op. It was 2 days Clear Liquids, then full liquids for 11 days, pureed for week and a half, soft moist foods (what I'm doing right now). and then in 3 days I get to start full foods.

I say follow your doc orders but its not uncommon to be on soft to solid food at three weeks I kno ppl who's diet progress fast you can't go on what others say cause docs have rules for their patients but its about listening to your body my doc said that I could advance as long as I was able to tolerate what I eat and just take my time do it very slow one food at a time so I'm 6 weeks tomorrow I'm on some solids and soft but I tried beef roast had no problem it was very tender I could only eat about a oz of that

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
