My Very Own Experience

[ohhsosweetxvb 44]

Good luck on your surgery! You will do great!

I am one week post op and I am looking forward to the puree stage. I am also having issues getting my Protein in and my Vitamins. Once I put "thicker" substance in my diet, I will do much better. I ordered the unflavored protein to add to anything I can so I can get enough in. I have always had severe nausea issues with vitamins unless I actually had food in my stomach. These liquids are not cuttin it.

I'm able to have yogurt and that fills me up, what are you allowed?

I can have skim milk, yogurt, pureed fruits, crystal light, and broth. For some reason, the sweet stuff is making me gag so I have been surviving on broth. I switched to Flinstones complete until next week when I start puree.

Also, milk has been making me gag too. They say our taste buds can change but I wish mine would have waited a week, lol

Yea, I'm getting pretty sick of sweet foods too, which is so not like me! Just a few more days and I can move on to the pureed stage. I can't wait!

Ohhh how exciting! You're one of the first surgeries of the day. I was in the afternoon. It's gonna be a little rough but do not hesitate to ask for pain meds, especially when you start walking! Good luck! This is going to be a great experience ????

Those of you that can't handle sweet - have you tried Greek yogurt? Not as sweet, more Protein, - you just really have to look at the sugar content though - they have great low sugar Greek Yogurt options now days
