My surgery was 6/5/14 and I am having a terrible time with this as well. I'm hoping not to have to make a visit to the ER.

Thanks to all who responded. I'm eager to get my salad eating started! I typically use French dressing but noticed all the sugar in it What dressing do you use?

showering - how long
Kelly827 replied to Dawnakers's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I showered the day after surgery. I was asked if I wanted to "wash up" and I told the nurse I would prefer to shower cause it would make me feel better. My incisions weren't draining so I was god to go! -
Is disgusting. That is all : )

Hi all. I am starting phase 3 (soft foods) and would like to get some ideas on what foods you all have tried in this stage. Thanks in advance for the suggestions!

Chewable calcium citrate
Kelly827 replied to Kelly827's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How long has it been since your surgery and also what multi vitamin are you using now? -
Chewable calcium citrate
Kelly827 replied to Kelly827's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't even know what to think about chocolate flavored. I have wild cherry and when I bite into it the taste goes up my nose and I just want to spit it out. I did try the lozenges that were a sample pack from my NUT (before I knew I was supposed to use them) and I can eat those all day long! -
Chewable calcium citrate
Kelly827 replied to Kelly827's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think I get to graduate to them at my 6 week check up. I am only 3 weeks post op right now and my dr wants me to use the chewable. I can tolerate the chewable muti vitamin with no problem but the calcium citrate is nasty. Can't wait till I can do the lozenges. -

I buy the chocolate premier shakes from costco. Only 1 gram of sugar.

I am on puréed stage as well. My go to food has been cottage cheese with a bit of pineapple. On occasion I will do a scrambled egg or some Greek yogurt. Can't wait till the end of the week when I can attempt the soft foods! -
Just had my first try at milk but limited it to only 1/2 cup of 1%due to the sugar level. So far so good. What were your experiences with milk post op?
-
Thanks for the info. With only being 2 weeks post op the sugar contents worry me. I was told to stay under 8 grams of sugar per meal so not to dump so I am super scared about the milk since it is 12 grams per cup. Any more advice you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone. I am post op gastric bypass. Had my first pre-op visit today and I am moving onto phase 2. Just wanted to get some ideas of what you tried in phase 2. Thanks!

New Food For Post Ops...
Kelly827 replied to lovelygirl01's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would like a copy too if anyone has it. Email is kellygirl_827@yahoo.com. Thanks so much! -
How many sugars are you being told to not try and go over per meal? I am getting conflicting info and worried about dumping due to stupidity.

I've lost a pound since Monday. I keep telling myself it's because I'm eating some foods now and not straight liquid. Honestly, I am forcing myself to eat 3 very small meals. I still don't feel hungry at all. Tho when I am watching Tv I think "if I hadn't had the surgery I would probably be snacking on something right now. "

I had surgery June 5 and have lost 22 pounds. I unfortunately do the same by checking my weight every day. It's hard not to! I know not to expect large results all the time but it would be nice if it happened that way.
-
Ok - I looked for tomato soup today but the sugar content was crazy high! I did pick up cream of chicken which was pretty. Having a hard time with the protein too.
-
Thanks for the suggestions! I started with cottage cheese today. A little nervous about trying stuff tho since I'm not sure how my body will react to it now.
