I messed up, what was I thinking



Recommended Posts

Some nutritionist guides have odd foods (to me at least) I’m trying to avoid my addiction foods like cheese, and only occasionally use a little butter. I’m taking it slower than most to add things. When I tried recommended purée like tuna it made me too ill. Albeit I have stricture and other issues unrelated to my RNY. But cheese, unless it’s cottage cheese should wait until a few months (for me I’m trying never unless non dairy) I highly recommend GoodCulture cottage cheese it’s high Protein with good Probiotics and also small curd. (The only cottage cheese I could tolerate)

I understand it's human. But it can also be dangerous. Ask some of the vets here about the people who eat pizza 1 week out or fried chicken the day after surgery. The docs make these rules not to be sadists, but through experience...

I had a friend who had a fried chicken wing 4 days after surgery that was mental!!! He had to go through the whole process to check for leaks in the staple line... I can definitely say that at 4 days I didn’t even want liquids in my mouth but yes the rules are godly.

      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.
