Full liquids starts today!



Recommended Posts

I was cleared for full liquids after leaving the hospital, my surgeon allows cream Soups strained of all lumps and bumps, cream cereals such as malt-o-meal, and cream of wheat, sf pudding, thick Protein shakes (like premier) and that's about it. I did try to drink premier 1 day post op and it didn't taste the same I hated it, and was extremely too thick to get down. Haven't tried again, let me know how it goes for you! How are you feeling in terms of pain and all that?

I still have the pain in my chest when I drink. My stomach (incision area) only hurts when I go from sitting to standing and standing to sitting. Also when I'm trying to move in bed. How about you?

I'm doing pretty good, I also have a little pain when moving around in bed, coughing, and especially sneezing, but I try to apply pressure while doing these things and it makes it a little better. I don't get pain from drinking just what feels like gas in my chest if I drink too much or too fast, I don't really have much restriction as some I've seen here with getting my liquids. I'm able to finish 20 oz of Water in a little over an hour which I think is odd.

Yay! My mood and energy really improved when I graduated from clear to full liquids. I suggest you find an unflavored Protein Powder to add it to strained Soups. Mix a scoopful of powder with just enough Water to make it smooth, then add it to hot liquids (that way it won't get those awful clumps).

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
