6 weeks post op- what can i eat?



Recommended Posts

Pretty much only eating yogurt, cottage cheese and some ground meats...anything else?



I eat most of whatever soft foods - I had bib lettuce with ham and cheese rolls - two tiny ones with mustard - it was yummy
I had clam chowder and Manhattan style too- 1/2 cup but like 1/4 cup at the time
I ate 1/2 fish patty
Avocado with tuna - I found this tiny tuna cans and one can suffice for two meals
- egg white and a bite of sausage from a McDonald's sandwich - order no butter no cheese and - I didn't ate the bread - egg for Breakfast and sausage for lunch - I keep ready to drink Protein powders in my bad as well as light and fit yogurt which I add Protein Powder or Peanut Butter powder - those are my go to kind of foods - oh and sugar free popsicles
I'm in my fifth week now - :)

i'm a little over 5 months post surgery. I'm still struggling with what to eat. For Breakfast I eat a hard boiled egg and a yogurt or a scrambled egg. Sometimes I'll eat a little fruit. For lunch its usually a Protein Drink, a salad with broiled chicken, chili from Wendys or sliced turkey wrapped with cheese . For Supper its usually shrimp or talapia or tuna . I don't have a lot of variation simply because its so hard to swallow certain things and I don't want to waste my money, I often fall back to the Protein Drinks simply to get in my Protein and it just makes everything simple. I haven't tried the Peanut Butter powder but may do some very soon.

      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?
