I ate a solid too early...need ideas to be prepared. Please help...



Recommended Posts

So, I am 10 days out. Other than having no energy and hating the taste of Protein Shakes, I guess it's been okay. I am not used to it yet.

I am on full liquids, and I hate it. Not so much, "I want fried chicken" but more "I hate soup/protein shakes/anything liquid".

I ate a slice of turkey bacon...slowly. I KNOW it's way too early, but I just wanted some meat.

I have unflavored Protein powder, every cream and broth based Soup in a 5 mile radius, milk, Protein shakes, greek yogurt in every flavor. I am so confused about what to eat. I don't like cottage cheese or things like that. I have sugar free popsicles for the crunch but the artificial sweetener makes my stomach upset and gassy.

I brought this up during my one week post op, but the clinician seemed disinterested, maybe she was having a bad day. She only suggested different flavors of greek yogurt (sigh...).

I don't want to fail this early on, and I kind of want to get a handle on it before the next stage...purees. Because, to be frank, the thought of eating blended meat makes me nauseous and I don't know how anyone does it. I also don't like eggs or mayo or mustard, so I have never had an egg salad or tuna salad or anything.

I guess I could live off of liquid Protein supplements and Clear Liquids until the solid food stage, but I really don't want to.

I just don't know what to do, so if anyone has any advice or encouragement, it would be greatly appreciated.

Love.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
