Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

My surgery is Monday and I am looking for some yummy post op recipes.

PLEASE, post all your recipes!

Ps. I'm on day 3 of the pre-op diet and I want to eat my whole house! Lol.. Any pre-op recipes for my lunch time meal?

Thank you in advance!

You are not going to care about recipes next week!!! But , I have to say, pepper on my chicken broth and strained cream Soups was awesome, and a great change from sweet shakes. Get supplies together if you haven't for your first week or two home... Protein, ready to drink protein (vanilla allows the most creativity) sf Jello and Popsicles, broth....my fav is swanson's Mexican tortilla which I mix with cream soups, and pepper.. sugar free apple cider, hot chocolate, instant Decaf for flavoring, freeze some banana to add to shakes, crystal light and miso, chewable vitamins You will have time to gather recipes, but mostly, you will be flavoring up your shakes ( orange jello powder and vanilla protein makes nice creamsicle when blended with ice). pumpkin and or spices to vanilla then frozen makes a fake ice cream. Good luck and keep us posted!!

For puree/soft, my favorite thing is pintos and cheese with a scoop of ground beef from Taco Bell. Tastes like heaven after a few weeks of only liquids.

I also bought Tomato Soup At Hand which is pre-made and just needs heated up. One can would last 4 meals for me. Add a little pepper or a little shredded cheddar and it's delicious.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
