Every surgeon and nutritionist is different and offers different plans to their patients. You really need to contact the surgeon who is familiar with your particular situation and see what they recommend. They should provide you with a plan.

"Starving" this soon out of surgery is unlikely. Most of what people feel is head hunger or acid. Did your surgeon give you a PPI to take? Best way to test to see if it's true hunger is to drink some Protein. If the feeling doesn't go away then it was head hunger or acid.

No, I honestly don't think so.

But all that matters is what your doctor says.

Jackie talk to your doc ASAP and no purée is not a good idea that soon. Just my humble $0.02. Good luck.

I don't think any of us loved the liquids part but it is very necessary for healing. Your stomach doesn't need to work very much right now so it can heal from being cut and stapled. Real food will come along soon enough.

I am a revision patient too - I promise it gets better and it really does feel SO good after those first couple of weeks. Hang in there!

Jackie, I can't help but feel that if you are a revision you should have known to do your research prior to your op. That includes post op diet, planning ahead & requesting information if it isn't provided to you. I don't mean to be harsh but you have to get on top of this.

I had the surgery on the same date and can't start the puréed stage until 9/16. Please stay on full liquids until you contact your surgeon.

Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.
