I had surgery on 6/29 gastric sleeved @ Mass General Hospital . I went to my 2 week post up appt with surgeon and nutritionist. So far I'm one of the lucky ones that haven't had any issues, no nausea, nor pain. She said I can pretty much each eat any food and fruit , but to be smart and use my common sense on what I'm eating. No fried food, no breads, Pasta, nor rice. And try to avoid fruit and veggies with skins. But to definitely try veggies and other food that I may tolerate. And eat my Protein first since my stomach is so small. Just wondering if any one had same diet?

This was exactly what I was instructed by my surgeon at my 2 week post-op checkup. I'm eating grilled chicken and pork, squash, green Beans, cherries, mozzarella cheese, etc. Chewing them to baby food consistency, but it's still real food :)

I'm almost weeks post op and I can barely eat without pain. Is this normal? I'm scared that I'm never gonna get to eat again without worry or pain

What are you eating? Are you taking small sips/bites and chewing well?

Take small sips. Try different temps of your liquids - some tolerate warm more than cold (or vice versa). Good luck! If you continue to have pain - give your surgeon a call.

      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.
