Help!First day on soft foods has been rough



Recommended Posts

Today i had my one month visit with my surgeon since my surgery on May 3rd. My doctor has had me on liquids for the entire month and today i was told i can start eating soft foods. First attempt at it was a spoonful of hummas and a deviled egg....felt horrible after had a feeling of heat come over me felt clammy and had to lay down? Second attempt a few hours later was acheese and that went down good and then a few hours later mushed up avacado and just the deviled egg mixture, felt uncomfortable going down and lots of burping is this normal? Im frustrated. Any suggestion? Ideas on what else i can they to eat.

Try cutting out the eggs for a little while, for some reason a lot of people have a hard time with them in the beginning.. I would get hot and clammy too if I ate to fast or ate something that didn't agree with me.

Also try just one new thing at a time take a tiny bite and let it sit with you for a few minutes to see how it feels..

You can try fish, turkey meatballs, low sodium deli meat.

And the 'one new thing' at a time is a good suggestion too.

For the 1st 2 weeks after my liquids stage I'm only allowed to add cottage cheese, yogurt, refried Beans, creamy Soup.< /p>

No eggs or cheese for me until the next stage. So maybe stick with really soft thru the transition?

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
