Hi guys! One of my favorite things ever is hot sauce I don't know if I'm allowed to have it yet I'm about 3 months post op. Just wondering what everyone's experience with spicy food was especially hot sauce! And when you started having it? Thanks!

I don't think I had any restrictions on hot sauce. At 3 months out I think you would be safe in trying a little to see how it goes.

I didn't have any restrictions with hot sauce, and started putting some on my cottage cheese about 2 weeks post op. Along with salt and pepper, yum! I never had an issue with it.

I added hot sauce to my refried Beans at two weeks post op. No problems. I was not given any restriction on it. My NUT just told me to go easy at first to see if I had reflux or heartburn issues or any other problems.

I think I was somewhere around the 9 week mark.

I began grilling again had some wings on the grill. I used a good hearty rub on them and sauced them three different ways for everyone. One of them was a no carb buffalo style sauce. After I had two of those and the sauce didn't cause any issues..............it was game on from that point forward.

FTR, my favorite Breakfast is a fried egg over easy with Tobasco sauce and ground pepper all over it. Yeah, buddy. Good stuff.

I started using hot sauces at about two weeks post surgery.

Follow your post op plan and introduce them slowly to see how you respond to them. Enjoy.

      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.
