RNY Bypass was 2 weeks ago today. Can't believe how far I've come in just two weeks! My surgeon has food "phases" each lasting two weeks. Phase 1 postop is liquid only (No liquids on day of surgery, Water on 2nd day after upper GI confirming no leaks, & then ease into Protein when possible. Jello, yogurt, and pudding are okay in this phase. Phase 2 is "Very Soft Foods" & that starts today! My first meal is 1/4 of Egg Beaters. Fingers crossed!

Went pretty well. I couldn't finish them yesterday. Today I went slower with my small bites and made sure to chew more. Never paid attention to chewing scrambled eggs before. I think I use to chew two or three times & swallow. Not anymore! & yes! I'm definitely a pepper monkey!

The eggs went well yesterday! Although at the end of the night, I calculated out 10g Protein short for the day. Made hot cocoa with skim milk. Feels very wrong to force myself to eat or drink when I have no hunger.

I'm supposed to add one new food per day. Had my eggs for Breakfast, so today's new food will be cottage cheese (with pepper, of course).

      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.
