I can't believe nobody told you that after surgery up until the time they give you the okay YOU MUST ABSOLUTELY NOT DEVIATE FROM the list of foods OR liquids they tell you to eat. Every time I had an appointment I also met with a nutritionist who gave me a new list of things to eat/ drink. I cant believe they didn't do that for you. Two weeks after I had mostly liquids yet an some items had to come from their stores. Soup mixes, shake mixes an everything tasted awful. I am at 9 weeks an still on 1/4-1/2 cup servings of soft foods on their list. If you even take a taste of anything else you probably will throw it up even after two hours. An that hurts. So above all follow exactly the diet they give you. If they didn't then ask for one. There aRe foods you will NEVER be able to eat. An one is probably fast food. I can't even eat fruits nor vegetables yet. One serving of food isn't much but it has to be all Protein so we get the 60 grams protein. Then when the time comes, if it ever does, then we might be able to add them. Hopefully. They didn't tell us a LOT of things pro op.

I meant to say post op. I might have thought about surgery a little longer.

I agree with the other poster. Please do not advance so soon. I am 9 months post op and I STILL have issues with grapes and oranges and watermelon.

Even though it's fruit and a juice, my sleeve just doesn't agree. And you just being 9 days and healing I just can't imagine.

Please please don't do that again. Or more than anything .,, remember it again for the next time because it probably will happen again.

Good luck to you and hopefully lesson learned.

I didn't know watermelon is an issue? Is it specifically watermelon? I was told most people with the sleeve don't dump? I've drank like 4 oz apple juice with no ill effects.. (I'm 2 weeks out) I don't regularly drink juice, but I wanted to see if I'd have issues.

I was only 8 days out and I think it was the sugar or the watermelon meat that went in my new tummy and it didn't like it :/

We were told nothing but their store shakes an Soups for three weeks. Boy I can't figure that out. An four to six weeks still soups, shakes, some tuna, soft egg, an absolutely No sugar or Carbs. That's how we gained the weight. Don't want it to come back. And it will if we don't eat right. No juice ever. No candy, cake, pies , pastries ever.

Sugar is the fault. Sugar in fruit an juice a. No juice ever. Toomuchsugar. Water, water. Wasn't you given a new diet each time you went to Dr? You will get new diets an You Must Follow them. Or the surgery is doing No good.

I don't think the little watermelon juice will have any lasting harm. Just don't do it again. Each doc has different guidelines so get back to your doc's requirements and you'll be fine.

@@PJO your program seems very restrictive. I'm right at 4 weeks and will be adding juice and fruit in a few days. I've had carbs (very tiny amounts) and I'm still losing.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
