Horrible experience with breakfast this morning



Recommended Posts

Hello. I am 3 weeks and two days post op. Overall my experience has been extremely positive.
I usually have an egg for Breakfast but decided to switch it this morning. About an hour after having my usual coffee mixed with Premier Protein and a bit of low-fat milk and later 16 ounces of Water , I had maybe 1/4 cup of oatmeal with milk with one strawberry and 5 slices of banana. Wow! It all went right through me VERY QUICKLY and straight to the toilet . It was traumatizing ! I can’t figure out if it was in the end too much milk or the oatmeal or maybe the banana ? All I know is I never want to experience that again ! Thankfully I was home. I can’t imagine experiencing that nightmare at work .
I have had diarrhea on and off since surgery but nothing this quick or overwhelming to my body .
Any thoughts or advice ?

It was sugar

add more Fiber and avoid sugar (fruit)

You can test out fruit again in a few months

I also had this response to sugar. It was from the sugar in a Protein Shake. It hit me after about 20-30 minutes and I was sick for hours. Cycles of diarrhea, dry heaves, then being very faint. I NEVER want to feel that bad again. It made a believer of me when it comes to sugar!!

      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.
