The whole no drink within 30 min of eating thing is confusing so figure I’ll just do it at night ! LOL thats basically what I was doing with my pre op diet and it seemed to work I had scrambled eggs 10 Days out only a half a teaspoon lol 1 Newyearnewme2019 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On that day I was able to get more fluids down and more Protein, helped tremendously. Headache much better the next day too and then gone. It kinda felt like a caffeine withdrawal headache.

vic91218 17 Posted December 27, 2018 I went in for my two weeks post op today and have lost 15lbs since surgery Dec 12th. Moving onto purées and I’m also hitting the road today (traveling musician). I have Soups I plan to purée, and some canned chicken to do the same. Low fat mayo, hot sauce etc. I also made a small batch of egg salad that I can keep cool in the cooler. I have these little 2oz plastic cups with lids that I plan to fill ahead of meals so I know what my portion should be. I guess it should be one or two of these right? On purées is 2-4 ounces per meal what you guys are doing? How many times a day for y’all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kjuno 53 Posted December 28, 2018 Out of curiosity does anyone have follow ups w dieticians post op? I had one class before and 2 after that are mandatory and it sounds like mine is one of the more strict ones. An example is I’m not allowed to have scrambled eggs until one month post op! I’m 16 days post op and really want some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m 16 days post op and really want some. 1 boiled egg was added to my food list after 2 weeks post op. I can have one with 1 tbsp. of a condiment like lowfat mayo, mustard, ketchup, etc mixed in it. nut said egg is too dry in tummy so add something to it. 1 kjuno reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
