2 days til soft foods



Recommended Posts

and i cant wait. so the paperwork my nutritionist gave me says i can move onto soft foods on May 3rd. Such as scrambled eggs, canned chicken, tuna, crab meat, ect...

I think i am going to grab a dozen quail eggs at the supermarket since those are so much smaller and can probably do 2 of those to start and see what i can handle. and gonna pick up a cluster of crab legs too. Its been a month now of liquids so i am dying for something solid lol.

I remember how exciting that stage was. I was planning my menu for days. lol

Oh i have been too lmao. I got a bunch of different tuna pouches, canned chicken, fish. heading tomorrow to get the quail eggs. I am so hoping i can handle it because man these shakes are getting old. Today i had to leave the house because there was a big bbq of smoked ribs and such. So wanted some haha.

CONGRATS! Words of advice... seriously eat SLOWLY and start with 1 egg. I thought people were smoking some serious drugs when they told me a single egg would make me full. I barely finished it in 20 mins or so and good grief, I swear it was the most glorious thing I'd ever eaten!

Hello! Today is my 9th day post-op and I’m feeling a bit more anxious to eat something. Any suggestions?

stick to the liquids until your surgeon tells you you can move on. We need to heal first otherwise we put our sleeves in jeopardy. trust me i know how you are feeling. But get that Protein in and fluids.

Yes that is why i am going to go buy quail eggs. They are tiny. figure i would start with those and work my way up to a standard chicken egg. and i cant wait lol.

Congrats on your surgery! If there was ever a countdown in my life that I looked forward to the most, it was the liquid to soft stage. Enjoy your quail eggs. [emoji106]

      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.
