Does anyone know when it's acceptable to eat cheese, if at all? I'm 10 days post op.. Just curious, because I'm making stuffed chicken for my family for dinner tonight, and I'm on puréed foods.. & Cheese has protein.. Just rambling lol

I didn't get cheese back til I was over a month out. Something about it can melt and gum up the healing stomach pouch/intestines, so you need to wait til it's healed. Literally at 6 months out, I eat cheese every day. It's my best friend when it comes to meals.

I'm in the pureed stage and I put some cheese on my refried Beans and melt it before eating.

I did too! Even the tiniest bit just makes a huge difference! I used a pinch of Parmesan

Has anyone tried Nutritional Yeast in place of cheese? I use it on steamed vegetables yummy, healthy and adds a lot of flavor.

It's not like yeast you use in bread.< /p>

Never heard of it. Does it have any Protein? I'd prefer to add a powdered Protein to other foods.

It has a ton of protein! Google it- it is fortified with B12, too

So the nutritional yeast tastes like cheese? I guess it would be okay on Soups and some dishes, but not everything.

Where do you get the nutritional cheese?

It's in more high end grocery places. Google it, and it might bring up where you can find it.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
