Ate too much post op 3 weeks any worries



Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I am post op - in pureed stage. I have done pretty good down 18, but tonight I could not resist I was hungry and overdid it.

I don't have much restriction but I ate spaghetti 8 bites, 2 bits cottage cheese, some milk and then about 1/4 cup refried Beans w/ cheese and cottage cheese 3 crackers. Can I hurt the effects of my surgery.

I did not get sick or vomit. Felt like I have some fullness pressure in chest. Thanks

I would think that your swelling has gone down and you probably don't have anything in your band right now. That being said, you can eat more than usual but not as much as you did in the past. As you get fills, this will change more & more. This time period is a matter of being really strict with yourself. So forgive yourself and don't do it again. Limit your foods to what they are supposed to be and go forward. Good luck.

Thanks for answering. You are right no fill for 4-6 weeks. Forgiving yourself can be hard. I just let the hunger get me. Thanks for the support

      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?
