Im almost 2mos out and have only drank 2 maybe 3 small cups of iced coffee. Did not feel anything. I would think that everyone reacts differently so it's pretty much trial and error.

I am 7 weeks post-op and have a question. Has anyone ever had an issue with getting the burps after eating tuna? Today was my first time trying it. I ate a little for breakfast with a few little wheat crackers and had the burps and gas bubbles all morning. I thought maybe i ate too fast so i tried just plain tuna in the afternoon for lunch with the same results. Has anyone else ever experienced this as well or have any idea why this could be happening? Thanks.

Wow.. stay strong and we'll pray for your recovery.

Good luck and recover quickly. Are there symptoms of when you are leaking? Like others, i too was concerned and may not know that i am but am. Just curious.

I only took a week and a half. Surgery on 8/1 and went back 8/13. Depends on what you do.

Good luck!!!!

Yes get back on track. It all depends on how i believe your liver and stomach are. I totally forgot i had to go on a liquid diet the week before surgery and i ate like a pig at my friends wedding on Sat and then a friends party on Sunday. Looked over my packet on Monday morning after i ate a bagel and realized i should be on liquids. Called my dr in a panic and he said start the liquids now and he would see if they can do it. Had my surgery that Wednesday. Guess everything was ok. I just had that worry that i would go under on wed and they would have to just close me up but all went well and i am now sleeved 4 weeks today. Stay strong and get back on track and hopefully you will be ok.

Ive been living on powerade zero.. should have bought stock... lol. And of course water from time to time.

And the parfaits are good too

Congrats to both of you and welcome to the club. I am 3 weeks post op tomorrow.

Dont you need to check the sugar content as well? Ive been drinking alot of Powerade zero.

Thanks all... its a whole lot of adjusting and getting used to. Trying to stay compliant.

Is yogurt and pudding considered part of the liquid diet?

Thanks all. Appreciate all your feedback. I guess everyone is different. I guess ill toughen out the clear liquids for a couple more days then go to liquid. Quick question, being new to this forum, what is a nut? Lol. Ive read many post including this one with that acronym.

What is the correct diet for post op? I three days post op and just want to confirm. My doctor said any liquid diet but everywhere else i read says clear liquid diet. Just want to see everyone elses input.

Im also 3 days post op. What type of protein shakes are you guys drinking? My doc said i can drink anything liquid but everywhere else i read, they say clear liquid. Idk
