What happens if you eat something before you're supposed to (clear liquid, puree, etc.)?



Recommended Posts

I'm on week 2 which says I can have Soups that are mainly creamed or strained. I can only eat three or four bites, so last night I got a delicious cup of chicken noodle Soup and intended to just get spoonfuls of the broth. Well, you guessed it, on one of my bites I accidentally got a small piece of noodle AND a small piece of chicken. I realize now it wasn't a good idea, but I also have anxiety and stressed all night that I was going to accidentally pop my sleeve. Can that happen with something like that or would it just make me sick?

All ended up well and I was fine, but you know......worst case scenarios and all.

I too at 2-3 weeks couldn't help but eat some noodles. At 3 weeks, I eat half the noodles from ramen noodles or the cup-a-noodles Soup. Nothing bad has happened to me. I needed it. I couldn't stand not to chew anything anymore. Just make sure you chew chew chew until is is almost like a paste.

You're fine. That tiny little bit of food at 2 weeks is not at all a big deal. :)

For most people nothing. For some people it cause tummy upset.

You will be fine with just those two items, but people who continually eat what they are not supposed to can develop leaks in their pouch, which could require an additional surgery.

I don't think it's anything to worry about. ????

      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.
