1st time Resturant post op



Recommended Posts

I'm 2wks post op and my dad birthday was October 16th, we went out to Ruby Tuesday and when the waiter came they took drink orders and when they got to me I was like no thanks and yes they stood there like okay not even Water lol and I was like no thanks lol ... ( I learned that from you all) so then moving on to ordering food the women collected all the orders and just skipped me lol I said well I guess she say if she ain't drinking she ain't eating so my dad had to call her back and I order the chicken tortilla soup... It was a bit thick so we got another bowl and hot water and mixed it ... Long story short when she came back it was still a lot left so she goes you didn't like it I seen you was picking in it I will just remove it from the ticket lol ...... Oh really THANK YOU for assuming lol just my first post op restaurant experience

Way to go and thanks for sharing your story. I'm still awaiting my approval but things like this do worry me. I have never realized how much I base everything I do around eating. Now I have to retrain 40 years worth of damage. Keep on being strong!

I try to get a drink as soon as I sit down and by the time everyone orders and the food comes 15-20 minutes later, I can eat.

      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.
