Kimberly, my dr suggested clear liquids only for at least a week so I had sugar free Popsicles, sugar free jello, broth, tea and water. About 5 days post op I was able to start adding protein shakes in. For me, the protein shake was heavy compares to the clear liquids so I had to break it up over the day.
I'm so happy I joined this site. I'm new and just had surgery on Monday so still on liquids but I've been following the thread and been jotting down different recipes you've all shared. Thank you all for opening up and sharing your journeys and recipes for others like me to see.
Hi everyone, I'm new on here and just had surgery on Monday. I'm so happy I found this group. Everyone seems to be open and it's nice to be able to talk to people who are going thru the same things as I am. Sometimes talking to people who haven't struggled with being overweight or making the choice to have the surgery is tough bc they don't understand it. I've looked at some other threads and learned things or found recipes that I can try later on. I'm looking forward to sharing my journey and following others. Wishing everyone luck who has upcoming surgeries.
