What was the first thing you ate?



Recommended Posts

On day 8, if his patients feel like they are "starving", my surgeon allows a test meal of a scrambled egg. So, I ate a scrambled egg, and let me just say, it was the best scrambled egg I have EVER put into my mouth!

I ate yogurt. I was really scared about anything more solid getting stuck. After that went okay, the next meal was scrambled eggs, again no problem. By this time I was craving something with flavor, so I dunked a cracker into pesto for a taste with garlic and I loved it! I only ate two crackers but the pesto was the best thing I had ever tasted.

1tsp basil

1 egg

I purchased a Magic Bullet, and I had egg salad and some pimento cheese (just about a bite). I would recommend the Magic Bullet to anyone, It really processess things down as smooth as you want them. I had surgery on Wednesday, today I had some scrambled eggs. I'm still using the slim fast for my Protein requirements. I'm not hungry at all. I'm going to do some chicken salad and tuna salad next. food sure does taste good! I'm a bit scared of eating, so I'm not eating very much right now.

Its funny... My doctor didn't really push the whole soft diet mushy food thing except for the first week after surgery. When I went to my one week check and asked him what i could do next, he said to me-just no shrimp or steak. Try things slowly but go to a regular diet. I about fell out of the chair but I did it and tolerated everything well. Still scare of bread but that will come. I am now patiently waiting for my first adjustment on the 8th of Jan, because sometimes I feel like I am eating to much even though i have cut way back.

I had to get my ok from the surgeon before moving from liquid to mushy phase on my 2 week check up. The surgeon's office is over 4 hours away so right after my appt I went to a grocery store and bought cottage cheese and plastic spoons. That cottage cheese was amazing!

My first meal was scrambled eggs with cheese. Even though it has been a long time ago, I still remember how wonderful it tasted. It was a very, very special moment for me, lol.

As soon as my doctor said I could have mushies, I went to KFC and got mashed potatoes. They were the best thing I have ever tasted in my life!! LOL

I had sheppards pie (blended to death in the bullet) it was wonderful - but I could eat blended food right after surgery - so I had this the evening of my surgery.

      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.
