I am 17 days post op and tried an egg. It did not sit well with me. It sounded so good but it just didn't work for me Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes! Things didn't taste the same to me. I'm 16 days post op now and it has gotten a lot better. Hang in there Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@ACJordan I went to my post op appt today. Doc says all is good. Had my drain tube taken out. Yay! Asked my dr about the pain and he believes mine was from my drain. I can say I have not had the pain since the drain has been removed but it was only removed today so we will see when I go to lay down. I'm on to soft foods now! So happy! And Im down 27 pounds Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Cream of wheat - really wet. Oatmeal also really wet like you can drink them. Add cinnamon and sweet n low and it tastes pretty good - just the texture is gritty on the cream of wheat but it will help the hunger. It took me an hour to eat a half of a cup. I'm 9 days post op and not able to start puree until after my doc appt next week.Im 2wks post op tomorrow and I can only have Clear Liquids. Wish I could have cream of wheat or oatmeal but can't until my post op appt. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@tavascott1 Omg! That is very encouraging to hear! It is horrible but then goes away just to catch you off guard awhile later. Gets you really good trying to get up from bed or turning over Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@brookebonic Im 11 days post op. Doing fine with liquids but still have pain. Mostly left lower side. Kinda grabs me and takes my breath away sometimes. My post op is Thurs so just going to wait till then to see dr. Other than that and my drain I feel good. The drain should come out Thurs too Yay! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@ACJordan I am 11 days post op and I think Im having the same thing. To the left of my belly button, down low. A sharp pain if trying to sit up, roll over, etc. sometimes takes your breath away and sometimes it seems it takes forever to ease up. My appt is Thurs so Im trying to make it till then. I have no incision there either. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Mine was suppose to be removed 7/6. Which would have made me 3 wks post op. I called my dr and they moved my appt 6/30. I can't wait to get this drain out! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@NewBeginning2016 I hear you! Im so done with the post op diet. Im not hungry but ready for something with a little more flavor. I also love cold Water and would love to just drink it down but can't. I just sip and sip! Will be happy just to start the next phase even if it is puree.

@@Moogle That is good to know. The only tenderness I have seems to be where the drain is. Can't wait for it to be out so I can be more comfortable. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@Moogle I hear you. I'm only 5 days post op but have a drain until July 6th. I'ld feel wonderful if that was gone lol I am also on all Clear Liquids and shakes until July 6th. Just want some other flavor or something. Tired of the sweet shakes but gotta do it. Did it hurt to remove the drain? That is the only pain I seem to have is where the drain is.
