Look all you do is get back on the horse again. Start over you and do this , it a small thing to a giant. I am here for you.

Well I can say I'm tired of eating refried Beans mashed potatoes and blending of everything I had to eat Soup. And I have been on this for the last 2 weeks and I know I'm tired of it

Don't beat yourself up. Just know that you have to follow the diet for the rest of the pre op period and the next time you have the urge to cheat just ask yourself if you want to make complications for your surgery or push it back. You can do it, be strong!

Have you talked to your doctor about this? Have you considered how you are going to deal with stress once you've had the surgery and could do actual physical harm to yourself if you ignore the prescribed post op diet? Do you feel that you are mentally ready for this procedure and do you have a counselor who can help you stop eating your emotions?

My questions are simply "food for thought" and not at all meant in a judgmental way. No need to answer the questions above out loud, simply think about what I've said.

Best of luck to you.

Thank you for reaching out to me. I will send u a friend request. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

You posted for support and insight, I'm sure. Here's mine....take care of yourself, put yourself first, baby yourself, take the needed time to heal, and be kind to yourself.
I am six weeks post op and I am still eating mostly puréed Soups with added Protein, yogurt, cottage cheese, applesauce, Jello, and two Premier shakes a day. My challenge is in drinking enough liquid, not protein intake.
Keep a journal of what you eat, your excercise, and how you are feeling. That has helped me. I wish for you the best.

Im not going to beat u up, sounds like youve done enough of that yourself. But theyre all right, its not about you falling off the wagon. If you were 3 or 4 months out, i think those words wouldve been different. But, youre just fresh from surgery and we're really worried about your health. Im 8wks out and i know that im still healing. My stomach is still really sore so i cant imagine eating 1 wk from surgery. I dont have a appetite now, i have to make myself eat. 78lbs later, im really happy that i can find other things to do to keep my mind off of food and do other things. Keep us posted and if you need to talk, send me a friend request on fb, ill talk with you anytime. I just want us all to succeed. We all had a life changing surgery and just give it a chance to do what it should. Pamela taite-pressey Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Thank you shedo. I have my post op appointment on tuesday. He's out of the office till then. I've decided that I'm going to let him know. Thank you for your support. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

Come on now. I totally think she gets it!! And every Dr.'s guidelines are different. I don't think she would lie about the prune juice and able to have 100% juice. She got it pretty hard guys. Each and every one of us had and still do make mistakes. She admits to having PSTD and an eating disorder she needs a little slap on the hand (which I feel she got whole heartedly) Hon, I am scared for you. Please reach out to your Dr and your Nutritionist/counselor. Like you said we all have problems with our food. Don't take everything that was said to you hard. KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

Pooping isn't an indication that you are in the clear. Drinking prune juice probably isn't on your plan right now either -- a lot of sugar, empty calories and no Protein.

You REALLY need to call your surgeon and tell him what you've eaten. He's much more capable of telling you the warning signs of leaks or ruptures than a board full of unqualified strangers on the internet.

After you speak to him, it's imperative that you figure out why you've put your health at such risk over a few bites of food. I would suggest you reach out to a professional counselor to help you through this process. At the very least, find a OA meeting in your area. It's my OPINION that you are really going to need local support if you are putting yourself at such risk so early out.

Best of luck to you.

I am.absolutly going to be taking it easy from now on. Thank you for the words of support. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

I do feel fine. Just waiting for my BM to be totally in the clear. Thank you for the care and support. I just had some prune juice and it made me nauseous but I'm gonna count that as normal since I hate it. Also im assuminh that hopefully the nausea means that it's working and moving stuff around in my tract, godwilling. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

Please go easy, I am also going through the wars and pains at week 3. It's so dangerous to start on solids to soon, it can cause you new tummy to leak into your cavity and that can give you major issues. I have just started on puree foods and it's very hard with the vomiting, so I lessened the about to around 150mls and that I seem to tolerate, please be careful.

Yes you did. Now moving forwards, stick to the plan, it is not a reecommendation, it is a recovery plan post major surgery. I know you can do it.

Make sure if nothing else you are getting in your Protein for the day.
