I do believe that in the long run this is the best. What types of things are you eating. And how much. I can not tolerate chicken... tuna is OK. And egg whites r OK. Cream of wheat is OK too. But we shouldn't have that. I have eaten mash potatoes, baked Beans, livermush, thin grits, and eggs, I have eaten tuna, and tonight o had chicken salad. I have also had yogurt,cheese, and a piece of turkey meat, apple sauce. I don't have much when I eat because I don't want to waste food. Just a little bit to see if I can handle it. My doctor had me on a liquid diet for a week, then puréed for a week, then soft food for two week, and then a normal diet. Right now I'm on the soft diet.

tanyamarie8808 6 Posted July 15, 2015 Yes my doc also had me on 2 week liquid after surgery. And then said I may eat like normal just only enough as big as an egg. Nothing more. But he never said stay away from carbs and the bad stuff. I guess that's common sense. But.... Now baked Beans aren't they high in sugar. And if u don't mind what ur highest weight. And current weight. Being u had your surgery a week after me I'm curious to see how we differ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And current weight. Being u had your surgery a week after me I'm curious to see how we differ. The baked beans that I had I eliminated a lot from the so they weren't that sweet. Are you chewing your food good? When I had surgery I was 379.. At one point my highest weight was 395. Before I had surgery I had to go on a two two week high Protein, low carb diet. I haven't gotten on the scale since surgery, but I will tomorrow when I go to my two-week post-op follow up. How about you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanyamarie8808 6 Posted July 15, 2015 My highest 299.which I also was made to go on 2 week Diet prior to surgery. My current is 255. I was told I was doing OK. I lost 19 pounds at my 2 week follow up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IamKe69 18 Posted July 15, 2015 I would just take it slow and try different things to see what works for you. Do you still drink the Protein Shakes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanyamarie8808 6 Posted July 15, 2015 My doc does not agree with them. But I think I am Just going to drink them anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scarletwitch19 302 Posted July 15, 2015 June 8th!How are you feeling so far? I've been doing pretty good! Able to eat a decent range of soft foods now, trying to exercise at least 40min/day. Hardest part is getting all my Protein in, but I'm doing 2 Protein shakes a day, each with 25g so that jumps me to 50 pretty quick. I am just so looking for when i 'notice' I've lost weight. I'm down 26lbs and it just hasn't made much a difference in clothes or appearance yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
