2 weeks out - first day on soft foods!



Recommended Posts

I am officially two weeks post-op as of today! I've never been so excited to eat scrambled eggs, and currently working on some chili (mostly the juice and a couple beans).

What I'm having trouble with so far is knowing when I'm full - simply because I'm not hungry even when I start to eat.

I ate about half an egg and stopped this morning because I was afraid of being miserable. I've eaten maybe an 8th a cup of chili and could keep going, (remember I'm not necessarily hungry and wasn't to begin with) to try to get in more calories and Protein, but then again I feel like I should stop to avoid misery.

Has anyone else had trouble knowing they are full without getting to that over-stuffed painful feeling? It's so weird to not be hungry!

I had my surgery on 8/6/2013, I am still rarely hungry and when I eat it is a couple spoons and full. I do not over due it, or I feel sick. It is so awesome though, to not eat plates of food. I start with my Protein and if I have room for veggies I eat some, but get so full fast. I eat 4-5 small meals a day, including snack like 8 almonds, or cheese stick.

      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...

        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.
