1st family dinner...6 days post op.



Recommended Posts

Had our first family dinner yesterday as well. Everyone else got to enjoy homemade pizza while I had about 4 oz of mashed sweet potatoes...lol. The pizza smelled good but I wasn't even that hungry to eat my sweet potatoes.

How far out are you? I'm 2 weeks post op today and I can eat everything! I don't have any feelings of fullness and I feel like I'm not eating enough

Seems that post-op diet guidelines all depends on your individual doctor. For me it was 2 weeks of full liquids post-op, and now I'm onto the pureed/soft foods stage for 2 weeks. Very limited thus far on what I can eat. At 4 weeks post-op I'll have more freedom to eat again.

At that time, 6 days post-op. I have a 9 week recovery program/diet. Are you sure you should be eating everything?

      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.
