I sent you a message :) You came home after only 1 night in the hospital too?! How are you doing these days? Still on puree or on to soft foods?

Merry Christmas ladies! I'm Ashley and I had my RNY done on 12/21. I went home the next day and since then it's just been lots of sips and walking lol. If there's a FB group id definitely be interested in that. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

I did come home after one day. I will be on full liquids until January 6th and then I think I move to soft foods. But I'll clarify that with the dr/nut at that appointment. Looking through all the threads it's interesting to see how different all the places are. I started to get worried because I'm not doing anything with Protein but nope my focus these first few weeks is just supposed to be getting in the fluids.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Two week followup went really well. I lost 15 pounds in a week. (I had been into the office a week earlier over a pain issue) I can't even fathom that. It blows my mind. I keep wondering what I've done to myself and why and that visit helped a ton in reminding me why.

Can't stop now. Gotta keep losing. :)

I got my surgery on the 29th, and it looks like I'll be going home tomorrow. The doctors are very focused on me getting all my liquids in. I can already do puree stage, but I'm not doing that yet. Just Water and Protein Shakes for this gal.

Holy moly already to puréed? I don't blame you for not trying it yet. I know every doctor is different though.

I was on pureed straight out the hospital. I did as I was told and tolerated it well.

Shame my pureed chicken tasted like cat food so I ended up doing some sort of soft food/liquid hybrid.

Hi, surgery date was December 29, 2015.

Pre diet was brutal, had a sinus infection so antibiotics kicked my butt,lost 16 lbs before surgery. So good to be on the site to see how others are progressing and what issues and good things are happening. Love to hear from you!

      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.
