Protein pudding not tolerated

[nprcowboy 533]

So last night I thought I would try sugar free Jello Unjury Protein chocolate pudding.it how's as allowed in full liquid diet in the first 2 weeks post op. Big mistake. Made me feel Ill instantly and had uncomfortable gurgle gas sounds and feelings coming up my esophagus. This was after only a couple of half teaspoons of it. Still have some of that going on this morning. It was the first non liquid state item I have had. Anyone else have a problem with pudding early on?

I haven't tried pudding yet. I don't think it's a big deal. Just try something else.

I was not allowed pudding on full liquids. I didn't try anything of that consistency until a couple weeks post op. Just because something is allowed on your plan doesn't mean your sleeve is ready for it. Someone once said, and it's so very true, "Sleeves can't read the paperwork." That also doesn't mean that in a week you'll have problems with pudding. I would put it back on the shelf, back up to only liquids for a few days, and then try again. With you being only a few days post-op, your main focus is fluids. Then Protein. And, managing your pain. That's all you have to worry about right now.

You may have problems with with a lot of things early on until you learn what is tolerated. I was super excited to eat my first scrambled egg about three weeks after surgery. Well my sleeve wasn't. I was in such distress I had to lay down and will myself not to throw up. I vowed never to eat eggs again, and went back to my soothing Cream of Wheat. Now, I can eat eggs just fine. If something doesn't go down well, just move on.

I had to Water down my pudding with milk until it was thin. I don't know if you tried that. I was told nothing thicker than a milkshake and i probably made it thinner than that.

I just do it for the flavor. Nothing else seems to taste good in the liquid phase.

Fine diva what do you put in your cream of wheat? I like cream of wheat but I don't like it plain.
