Chavon88 22 Posted July 7, 2017 Hello everyone . I am 17 days post op and I am having a hard time finding things to eat. Everything I try upsets my stomach and I'm not hungry at all. Today I had a string cheese, and 2 bites of shredded chicken. Im nervous because I don't want to get in a habit of not eating. I need a plan, please help.

larta 26 Posted July 9, 2017 I am having my surgery tomorrow. My Dr said I will be on Protein Drinks etc; no food until my post op until 7/26/17. I am on liquid now and have been since yesterday. Ugh.... I will be watching your post because I'm going to want to know what to eat. I google everything, but its good to get ideas from other people who are going though it.

I google everything, but its good to get ideas from other people who are going though it.Best advice is to not buy too much of one thing in the beginning I am 17 days out after gastric sleeve. I have a pantry full of boxes of Bone Broth ,cream Soups, and a frig full of different Protein Shakes I hate. I found a protein milk at publix called Rockin refuel it's awesome. chocolate taste just like chocolate milk and the vanilla taste like icecream. Has 30 grams protein. And I love oikos triple zero Greek yogurt has 15 grams protein the strawberry and salted caramel are my favorites. I got some unflavored Protein Powder to add to my soups. I've made a smoothie using fat free skim milk protein powder and fresh strawberries added splenda. Also crushed ice is my friend. I go to sonic and get bags of pellet ice and keep in my fridge. When I need to chomp on something it's there. Hope this helps.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using BariatricPal mobile app 1 lillian.b.white reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
larta 26 Posted July 9, 2017 Sylvia...Thanks for your suggestions. Being the fanatic I am, I also have Protein powder and everything coming out of my cupboards. LOL We do not have Public here but I can check for that Rockin brand somewhere or order it on-line. How long before you can go on soft foods? How long were you in the hospital? Are you feeling well since its 17 days? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
