Ok, ok how many weeks before soft food? Confused!



Recommended Posts

My doc first said 2 days liquid, 3 weeks full liquid and 3 weeks puréed, then start soft foods. Now she said they changed it to 2 days liquid, 2 weeks full liquid , 2 weeks puréed and then soft. What was your regimen per docs orders?

Well first of all...I pray your doing well and with minimal discomfort. Congratulations on hopping to the post side of this journey. I was sleeved 10/10/13 and my cravings are ridiculous...but the fact remains that if I actually ate what I craved I could only stomach a bite or two lol. But I still want this liquid misery to be over star! Be well!! :)

Im on full liquids for 2 weeks then pureed foods for 2 weeks. Probably best to get in touch with your doctor and explain they gave you 2 different sets of instructions and which they want you to follow

Thanks so much...they told me to follow the 2-2 yesterday but I wanted to hear the many differences since they changed it. I guess it boils down to a definite 2 or 3 week minimum for liquids (hunches) I'm just happy I'm not on 3-3 as that would ruin my vacation :)

I was on soft foods along with purees/mushies and liquids from the first week - scrambled eggs and yogurt along with Jello and broths in the hospital and progressing as tolerated from there.

I thought, just like you, wow sooo many variances. From what I've read so far is we need to be I tuned with on bodies. I've tried some stuff and it's made me gag. Others things I have to watch because they taste so good I have almost over ate, like grilled shrimp. I can eat 6, not 7. I chewed that sucker up, but it didn't go down for an hour. :-).

      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.
