I had my surgery on March 18th. I did really well the first week' date=' but this past week I have had alot of nausea and not getting

my Protein and Water in. I am sooooo sick of the Protein Shakes. They are too sweet and it makes me want to gag. I did better yesterday and hopefully I will do ok by the end of today.

What are the rest of you that had surgery on the 18th allowed to eat now?[/quote']

As of tomorrow I am allowed cottage cheese, Beans, soft cheeses, Greek yogurt, eggs, egg beaters, ground turkey, ground chicken, puréed or mashed soft fruit, hot Cereal, soft cooked vegetables with the skin removed. This is for the next 3 weeks! I have to say I will be having other soft puréed foods high on protein if I tolerate them.

This week is soft foods like cottage c cheese and Greek yogurts. I tried pureed tuna but it came right back up and I measured. I'm pretty sure out was the tuna. I sometimes had problems with out before. So I'm going to hold off on meats for a week and try again later. I get more Protein out of the yogurt anyway.

Just had my 2 week post op- still on liquids (along with cottage cheese & yogurt) for another week- then finally puréed. Ugh. I was so hoping to move up today :( went from 228 to 205 so that's a plus!

Do you know how often these stalls happen? Sounds like it happens a lot. I stalled for about a week. I don't think I was eating enough because I never got hungry. I still don't get hungry but I know if I don't eat the weight won't come off. That is what happens for me at least... You are doing great btw slow and steady always wins the race. :)

Sounds like you are doing great. I too can only eat fish and soft foods with no oil. Oil makes me so nauseated. I stick to baking or boiling my chicken or fish. Grilled meat is still to tough for me.

      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.
