So I'm going to try soft foods and was wondering how everyone did with eggs

Just had my Protein Shake. .. It's going to take some time to get used to it. It was hard taking my Vitamins. Tried some of the samples. The Celebrate were the best but still hard to take. Still haven't had any Soup yet, not hungry. ... Have my first post op f/u tomorrow.

My doctor never suggested a calorie limit either. 11g of Protein is great. I have an Excel spreadsheet that has almost 100 grocery store, frozen, and fast food items that are all high in protein (and I'm adding to it all the time). Forum rules don't allow me to post it but I'd be glad to email it to you if post your email address or PM it to me. I've sent it to dozens of folks here on the forum. One of the biggest (and best) surprises I've had following my RNY has been the number of delicious, high protein options there are out there!!

Can you please email it to me as well, msaenz1976@yahoo.com

So my surgery was May 13. I'm graduating to full liquids tomorrow and Protein Shakes. I still haven't had a BM, it's been 5 days. I'm not uncomfortable and passing gas ok. I've been walking about 20 min everyday. Any body else have the same concern with their BM' s.

Excited, I get to start full liquids tomorrow. Gonna try the premiere Protein Shakes several have mentioned. Hope I like it. Feel a little tired after my Walks but think it's due to the little calories going in. Gonna see if the Protein will help. Good luck to everyone having surgery this week. Keep thinking positive thoughts and get out of bed ASAP and start walking.

Hi all, I'm post op 4 days. Doing well with my liquids all though I feel very full all the time. Feel just a bit sore when I use my abdominal muscles for something. I ended up with 6 incisions. No nausea, only taking pain meds at night to help me sleep. Up to 20 min in walking about 3 times a day. Cooked a spaghetti meal today including biscuits for my family. Was a little hard but I did it and sat there sipping my broth. Feel a little down today but think I need to get out of the house for a while.

I start clear liquid tomorrow and surgery on Tuesday!! I hoping tomorrow flies by!

Me too, I'm nervous. ..
