My Kaiser post-op different from most

[kimberb 323]

Hello Everyone,

My post- op diet starts Thursday. 800 daily calories no fruit no sugar no starches. High protien low carb.

I hadn't read my bariatric folder since September. Last night I reread it. I was shocked to see that for the first 2 weeks I'm only allowed 1 1/2 premier Protein shakes and of course 64 ounces of Water or no calorie drink. I sent my nutritionist an email asking about Soups, sf popsicles, sf pudding. Fresno Kaiser does not want us eating any of that

Starting 3rd week I move to soft foods. No puree stage. It sure is strange how different bariatric surgery requirements are from surgeon to surgeon.

Yup, this drives me nuts. You would think that the diets would be evidence-based, but apparently not. :/
