6Ounces Of Yogurt
slowtogo replied to eeyoregirl1970's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You probably should stick to no more than a 1/4 cup at this time..talk to your doc. -
A stricture is when the opening to your intestine closes due to scar tissue.
-
And it did it again! If you see phone, have your brain auto correct to pho, lol!
-
Dang it!! It should read pho is full of meat
-
Phone is Vietnamese noodle soup, sort of like ramen noodles, nut full of meat. The beef and stuff is a bit tough for a young pouch, but seafood rocks.
-
It fixed pho but not dilation...lol
-
Depends what you define as hard...my gastro suggested soft foods for three weeks..I didn't do that. My gf surgeon suggested letting the pouch rest for a day or two..this I did, and pre loaded with a warm drink or broth soup. I had two dialation procedures. They dialated me to 15 mm then no more problems
-
Try decaf hot tea with a teaspoon of honey...honey actually helps settle the stomach and is antibacterial.
-
Lol...seafood pho, not phone! Darn auto correct!!
-
I could do fluids immediately after recovery.
-
Less than 24 hours. Started with warm broth soup...I had seafood phone both times, I little noodle and mostly broth. Felt so much better. Tea is good also.
-
That is awesome!!
-
I have, felt much better after being dilated.

Bobby- not true on the throwing up- I developed a stricture, no sugars, but lots of throwing up even on water. It can happen. -
A ton of weight offended me as I wasn't THAT huge... And here is this guy smoking and carrying on and judging. It was wrong.

Yay!!! And one-derland will be next...

Check with your doctor. Vinegar products and citrus products were no goes for me for a few months. They can irritate the stomach lining.

Any One Know About Flying After Surgery

The big concern is for >hour. -
I wasn't given a number, just protein first, veggies next, then fruits. After all that, there insnt really much room left for carbs. Also was told that carbs must be mixed with protein.
