Zebby67 43 Posted December 20, 2018 Hi, I am ten days out from RnY. I have been feeling pretty good getting almost all I need. I just feel like I am eating wrong and doing everything wrong. I walk everyday because that is the best for me in a lot of ways. The Protein Shakes are kinda up in the air a bit. I love the chocolate Muscle Milk. vanilla shakes not as much. I can do any of it if it's ice cold and I don't have to sip it. It is that normal? I feel like I can drink anything too quickly. Is that normal? Sipping and I aren't the best of friends. I am used to drinking a lot and often due to diabetes and medications I have been taking. The only real thing that seems to bother me is being too close to smokers and peach yogurt. Lol! Any advice is welcome and thank you all very much.

Orchids&Dragons 9,047 Posted December 20, 2018 So long as you can drink without pain, you're fine. At 10 days out, a lot of people can drink normally. Don't gulp, but drinking faster than sipping is fine. 4 FluffyChix, Zebby67, GreenTealael and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I try my best to adhere to what my medical team has set but there are times I just don't know. Like applesauce. I don't know. It gave me no problems and was very good with sweetner and cinnamon. My sugar free pudding and Jello. Jello and pudding were on my pre- op liquid diet. Just keep plugging to get in Protein and Water.

Frustr8 7,886 Posted December 20, 2018 Some of the borderline, if you can thin down or puree the snarf out of them, try gingerly, just a baby spoon and slowly. If you can get away with it, Bazinga! My program says it must be thin enough to go through a funnel. My dietician Roy( yeppers- I do have a Guy Dietician!) says If you have to chew--- its not Stage #2. But you would not want to be like your Auntie Frustr8, I swear I am the only person in the world🌎 who has been on a liquids diet since I went on Liver Shrink August 1st, 20 lousee weeks. But thanks to my TPN I am getting better, once my ulcers heal better and the internal swelling goes down, I will make up for lost time. Regrets, no ma'm because of I had continued obese I could be dead, I have lost weight, down easily 50 pounds since surgery and the TPN is minor inconvenience compared with death. And I still can be hear enjoying everyone's successes.!🍀👈😝👉 2 Zebby67 and Liz The New Me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nursenays 57 Posted December 22, 2018 I am 19 days post op and can drink as normal now, I have to make myself slow down. Pre surgery I drank over a gallon of Water a day for years. I’m not taking in as much now, I’m averaging 90 oz and my system sure can tell. My NUT told me as long as the fluids weren’t causing me discomfort I can drink what I want as tolerated. 2 Zebby67 and Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
