Going back on liquids to jump start 4 months post op? Anybody tried this??



Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anybody has tried going back on liquids after surgery ...like 4 months out or so ....to jump start things.....just wondering what extent you took it to...and how it worked???

This takes me back....If I had been bad (eating wrong things) over a period of time, or was in the wrong frame of mind and perhaps put a bit of weight back on, I used to pretend I had just had surgery and went back to basics....and it worked every time. Gave me a new lease of life and the weight would drop off. Difference was that I had restriction whereas after surgery I didn't...so go for it....it really is a boost!!

I have been thinking of doing the same thing. I am six months out and lost 35 lbs. I have been going back and forth with just doing liquids for a week to get my head back on track. I think that would help a lot. Good luck with your weight loss.

HI, I am a little over 9months out since my banding. I love it!! I have lost 80lbs so far and I didnt even work out yet. So as the weight has pretty much come to a halt which should be expected, I am now working out and considering the liquid diet again to give me a boost. We will see how this works for me!! :cursing:

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
