Full liquids too soon?



Recommended Posts

I am so sorry that’s happening. They gave me Ondansetron and pantoprazole I only took them for about a week I didn’t need them but not sure if the Ondansetron would help you.

Cut your shakes half and half with Water, may take longer but others have complained of choking on them thick and undiluted. Go to broth or another liquid you can stand, how about Decaf or herbal tea? Warm works for some people, cool for others and some_(but Not Me) want everything room temperature. Room temp to me seems like drinking # 1but I confess that's just MHO after all.

Thank you so much. I got scared that maybe it was lactose intolerance, which I know is super common in vsg.

It certainly could be lactose, but this early on, it just may be a cranky tummy. Good luck!

They said because they do not provide any carbs? They want me to have 5 carbs per shake...which is hard to find in plant based Protein. I think I really just need to call the doc tomorrow because I'm still having pretty awful issues today and have been on Clear Liquids since the incident yesterday. It's getting old quick. I'm trying not to get discouraged but any fluids I put in are gone within 20 minutes or so.

Did they put you on antibiotics in the hospital? If so, it may they may have killed off the healthy bacteria in your intestines, causing diarrhea. Definitely call the doc.

That's weird I've always heard low or no carbs. I buy bulk powder with lowest possible carbs maybe 5g a day

      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.
