My surgery date was the 20th how many calories did you guys do within the 2 week point? I'm having absolutely no trouble with liquids and almost drinking normally.. Is that normal?

Mine was 6/21 my doc said dont worry about calories just keep carbs under 30.

Right now im between 300-400 calories though.

Im cleared to eat anything other than nuts, beef Jerky, really hard stuff basically.

I keep seeing everyone doing like that sort of amount of calories but my surgeon has me on full liquids until the 6th..then puree for 1 month. But I've been having about 600 the past few days and worrying because others are having far less... How's it been switching to normal food? ?

Switching to normal foods has been so much better.. not starving as much. It can be hard to eat very much though. About 3 spoons is all i can get at a time right now. Today i ate a soft ground beef taco, 1/2 then waited a few hours and ate the other half. It was nice getting normal food. I have found my mind wondering like oh, i should have a piece of french toast, lol...but then i catch myseld and say no....dont do it. You would still lose weight just because we can't eat much, but im trying to choose healthy stuff as much as possible.

Purple girl, lots of people here have said they struggle with eggs. Switch it up. Fat free Greek yogurt with some stevia, low fat refried Beans with a little shredded cheese, fairlife milk or shakes, steel cut oatmeal with Protein Powder added were my staples in the early days.

This clear liquid diet is a struggle. I’ve been in a liquid diet since June 20th. But Clear Liquids is what’s really hard. I’m tired of Jello, broth, and Water.

I know it’s my brain that misses the action of eating food. It’s not even like I’m craving junk. I just really want some retried Beans, hummus and cucumbers, Or a grilled chicken salad. I have this clear liquid diet until the 11th then I move on to purée for 2 weeks. 😭 this is mental struggle!

I got this, I know I choose this path, Just coming here to vent! Haha :)

I’ve seen everyone having different stories. Me I could care less to eat.

I have no interest

I have to force myself to eat

My biggest advice..... take it stage by stage. Don’t look to the future more then each stage

Same. Two weeks almost postop and not having hunger pains at all. Log everything so I remember to eat and meet my quota on Protein & fluids. Wish I could just get an hour of IVs each morning to fill both needs than just enjoy my day lol. Wouldn’t that be nice? Getting so sick of constantly sipping one drink or another. If I could just chug 16 Oz four times thru day, would be much easier, too.

I’m not able to eat more than a 1000 calories. I’ve lost 25 since the 6th of June and a total of 5 inches. How is everyone else doing?

Oh I don’t have hunger pangs either. It’s my brain. It misses the actual act of eating food.
