I am 6 days post op. First couple of days I def stuck to the liquid thing 100%. Here lately I have been making Soups with soft noodles and making sure I chew them very well. I myself am getting kind of sick of the liquid diet. I am ready to move on. It's looking like I am on that same track! Did any of you have problems with healing? It's so much more filling and I have a little more energy! Just worried about my staples!!! I'm 5 days out I am also on this track- I'm supposed to start purees 4/20 (which is a month out for me) however.. I was just not eating since I was over everything else and i'm not getting my Protein in. I started on ricotta bake, and refried Beans with a lot of sour cream. This weekend I added in cottage cheese and tuna salad. So far so good.

Day one post op vs day 19

I am 18 days out and i've been having the same issues. In fact i was becoming undernurished and my nutritionist told me to start drinking smoothies made with greek yogurt, fairlife milk, and fruit. All Protein is disgusting to me except the Atkins Carmel Cafe shakes, and those have a lot of fat in them, so I was told to limit them to once a day. As far as Water I was only gettng about 24 oz in.. So my NUT told me to add fruit slices(just dont eat the fruit) So i've been adding lemon and orange slices to my water. Since surgery I cannot tolerate crystal light. I've also made a batch of the Starbucks Tazo Passion Fruit Iced Tea and I mix in the MInute Maid light 5 calorie lemonade and it helps get fluids in also. I'm currently choking down an Isopure Zero Carb-- at the very least it helps me get my water in, because for every drink I take I have to chase it with water.

I was on Full Liquids right after surgery- full liquids for a month Purees for a Month Soft food for a month... Then solids.

I start purees a month out from surgery. So I start them 4/20. Although I have sampled some things! Lol

I've wondered that myself. I've adventures with a few bites if turkey and a little stuffing with gravy. I have to eat very slowly and chew the heck out of everything, but so far I am able to eat everything I've tried. I cannot stand the sight, smell or taste of any of the protein drinks anymore so have to get some protein in somehow. Doing ok with the cream of wheat and yogurt though but I have been eating about one real mean (saucer sized) per day. Am still losing at a reasonable rate so I'm feeling ok. Just guilty about not following orders lol. I'm still on full liquids. Until the 21st. Surgery was 3/20. I've tested my limits.. Lol. All healthy high protein things such as refried beans and very very moist salmon in well chewed tiny pieces. Today marks my one month on liquids since pre op! I'm over it!

I couldn't figure out how to post to the bariatricpal video site from my phone, but here is my week 2 post op update! https://youtu.be/O0heKEuyARk

I did! They hurt so bad, and were hot and itchy! I don't know what it was but the nest day they felt a lot better!
