It's been 9 months since my gastric bypass surgery. And I was wondering has anyone tried corn after surgery? I've been craving some corn but not sure if it's a good idea from what I read on line.......

At 9 months post op, you should be able to eat corn without any issue. The only thing I would caution you on is to take it slow at first. As with adding any new food, try a little bit at a time until you know how your body will react to it, then go from there.

I am 18 months post op RNY. I use to love sweet corn. I have eaten corn a few times after surgery. The most I can eat is less than one ear of corn. It seems to cause me to gain weight so I generally stay away from corn now.

I'm 7 months out. I've eaten it many times.

Is it the digestion of the corn itself or chemical make up.

Reason I ask is I found some Campbells corn Soup that is pure liquid. I was thinking about adding it to my diet next week.

I have eaten corn, I am 7 months out.

I would say stay away from corn casserole, I had a bad dumping episode, way too much sugar.

This is actually quite a relief. For years, I have had a very large garden and this year alone my wife and I froze up over 90 dozen ears of corn off the cob. Really, all I have heard is that there are many items, including corn, that you can never have again if you have gastric bypass.

      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.
