Recommended Posts

HEY EVERYONE! I feel much better I Went to kroger Thursday and bought Gatorade Zero so ive been drinking That My Water And Vegetable Soup and I’ve Been eating Silk unsweetened vanilla almond Plain Yogurt And I Put my own Fruit(Black berries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and bananas) In A Blender puree It and Add It to the Yogurt because My surgeron office told me last monday start with sugar free yogurt, sugar free apple sauce, and cottage cheese and after 2-5 days if I can tolerate that I can advance to soup with veggies in it, or crushed bean soup so Today i was able To Advance To Vegetable soup With Veggies and it felt so good to be able to chew. I Definitely feel much better and im Plant based for all that wanna know why im doing silk yogurt and adding my own fruit.

Good to hear, dehydration is scary if you've been down that road. I know the feeling of advancing to thr next stage, this cream Soup is devine. The Greek yogurt is good as well. I'm looking forward to the puree phase next week, omg!!! I want some refried Beans, egg whites, tuna, chicken...anything to chew on, tired of sipping.

I’m one week post op today and so tired of drinking. I can’t wait to chew on something again. I have my one week follow up tmrw morning With my surgeon and hoping he will put me on full liquids. I was actually hungry yesterday and tried some 1% milk with my Protein Powder instead of Water and I got nauseated, fast heart rate, hot flashes and sweaty. It really scared me but I jumped in here and discovered I was having dumping syndrome symptoms. I loved milk prior to the sleeve and we’re not really supposed to have dumping syndrome like the bypass peeps, allegedly from what I’ve read on the net. So that kinda sucks.

Glad you feel better! I still fight dehydration, 6 months out. I do ok with fluids, but I need to do better consistently.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
