What to eat, drink?

[northstar9148 82]

Does anyone know exactly what we are supposed to eat, drink? I had sleeve surgery on the 12th of July. I understand, broth, sugarfree Jello, pudding, Soup, carnations instant Breakfast, anything else?

Protein Shakes are the big one I didn't see mentioned. Sounds like you're on full liquids? You could have sf popsicles to get a little bit of different texture. Protein soups/broths were a godsend my first 2 weeks when I would get tired of the shakes and protein Water.< br />
Hang in there! I know the liquid phase isn't fun, but the results you'll see and eventually the way your body will feel will make it all worth it!

Does your surgeon provide a nutritionist? Do they have a plan that they want you to follow?

It sounds to me like you're on the right track, but every program is different.

You might try looking at Dr. Weiner's videos on You Tube. They are a bit different from my doctor's program, but I like what he has to say and might be changing my routine a bit.

Never be shy to ask for opinions on here. Sometimes I feel like these people know more than my doctor!

Milk is a full liquid. Just make sure everything is super watery for the next little bit. Everything should be able to be easily sucked through a straw for the first 14 days. (No straws.. just tells you how watery it should be).

Premier Protein ready-made shakes (Costco) have been a very helpful tool for me. chicken broth and Bone Broth were very helpful for me when trying to get a break from the consistent "sweetness" of most Protein supplements. Also Greek yogurt, but stay away from formulations that contain more grams of sugar than protein.

I had surgery 2 days after you! I just started my full liquid diet today. I had my surgery in Mexico, so don't have a nutritionist. Here are the some of the things I was approved to eat this week (please note that everyone's diet is different). I was warned that Tomato based products may be too acidic but that I could try them and see how I tolerate them.

single grain baby Cereal thinned with milk or Protein Shake

thinned cream of wheat

boiled chicken (can be seasoned) pureed with enough broth to go through through a funnel

level 1 or 2 baby food (stick with fruits cuz I hear the other stuff is gross)

I am actually allowed to have cottage cheese and don't have to blend it

Yoplait whipped yogurt

low sodium V-8
