I am 17 days post op. I ended up in the ER yesterday after suffering for 2 days from severe light headedness upon standing. DEHYDRATION IS SERIOUS! Even though I was getting min 64 oz it is not enough! I ended up getting 96 oz plus the IV fluids & feel better today.
Please please get some fluids!

Everyone's plans are SO different. I was on clear liquids for 2 weeks, full 1week, purée 1 week and soft 1 week. My plan and my friends are so different . Just trying to see what works for everyone and at about what week they could tolerate it I'm gonna try the ricotta bake and marinara in my purée stage, I guess I'll call my surgeon about the eggs. I heard a lot of people have issues with eggs (which I hope passes cause I love eggs!) my friend suggested scrambled first then whole next
On my blended phase I was told to soft scramble the egg, then blend it. My mini food processor has sure come in handy!

My dr said the 30 minutes doesn't apply during straight liquid phase. When you start blended food is when you have to wait. And I started it Thursday & am finding it difficult to get enough Water in especially when I take a nap everyday. Just ended up in the ER with dehydration.

I had my gall bladder removed when they did my sleeve. I developed severe acid reflux 3 days post surgery. Granted I'm only 2 1/2 weeks out but I'm taking 2 Pepcid/day & it's still waking me up at night. It has been quite the struggle when I need sleep to heal but can't sleep due to the reflux.

I had that same problem for about a week. Now I am using ice for my Protein drinks. Hopefully yours gets better soon!
