@@Cupcake yea I'm about 10 days out and my Bariatric practice moves us to puree/soft foods on day 7. I haven't tried nearly everything on the list but what I have tried has gone down with no issues. The only thing that I don't tolerate much is Water and Protein Shakes. Even with the foods I do eat, I actually feel like I'm not eating or drinking nearly as much as I should lol.

I'm afraid I'm not getting in the Protein I need so I eat the tuna, salmon and eggs. I try and mix my protien shake with ice and Torani hazelnut flavoring and it has helped some. I also found a 15 calorie lemonade drink by minute made to help stay hydrated and switch between that and water.

I'm interested in everyone else's timeline, what week do you all move to soft food stage?? Also what is everyone drinking besides water...water used to be my best friend so it is actually the ONLY thing I miss pre surgery.

it is interesting to read everyone's posts. My team placed me on pureed meals 2day post op. I don't eat them all day of course but had to show that I could tolerate it before I left the hospital. I concentrate on water & protein shakes pureed foods all Proteins In between . We all must follow our teams instructions. Best of luck to everyone.
