Today I am two weeks post op, I am down 15lbs since surgery. I started on purée/ super soft foods two days ago. Every time I ingest food I get bad pain in the middle of my chest. Is anyone else experiencing this? And tip that maybe help? Thanks [emoji4]

I am on phase 2 of my teams full liquids. That includes cottage cheese, sf pudding, strained creamed Soup. I have 2-3 ounces 6 times per day plus 3 Protein Shakes (must be 100% whey isolate for best absorption) Next Wednesday I will advance to soft solids like ricotta cheese, soft deli meats, soft cheese, etc.
Ok I understand. Good luck to you! [emoji4]

I take 2 Flintstones multivitamins (well, the generic) every morning. As for Protein, I like the Premier Protein ready-to-drink shakes or the Syntrax Nectar powders. I also get the Protein2O protein Water, which is 15g of protein in 17 oz of water.
How does the protein20 taste? And where did you get it

I am starting Friday also!! I’m excited too. What kind of Protein Shakes and Vitamins have you been taking? Have you thrown up? I feel like it’s weird that I haven’t thrown up.

I had the spasms as well. I was sleeved on April 3 and the spams have calmed down unless I try to drink too much or too fast.

Now that you said that I do realize the occur more frequently after drinking too fast. I will try to slow that down. Thank you

I had the spasms. I think that they lasted about 10 days. They did get less intense before then though.
My plan did away with puree BUT, I am on full liquids for 3 weeks post op. I did Optifast 4 weeks pre op so I hear you on being sick of liquids.
So from liquid they will put you straight to solid? Or are you doing all textures like watery, pudding and soft stuff?

I’m not sure what a stomach spasm feels like, but I don’t think I had them. Every plan is different, but generally you advance to purée after two weeks (I got permission at my first post op visit 12days out.
It’s basically like an intense contraction. Come on strong squeezing then subsides. I’m looking forward to the purée diet I can’t take these liquids. I had to to them two weeks pre op as well. I’m over it LOL

Hi, had my surgery 4/3/18. I am one wee post op today! I am feeling good other than some spasms of the stomach. I was wondering if anyone else suffered from that and how long they took to subside? Any remedies that helped with them? Also, how long after surgery were you instructed to begin purée foods?

Thank you. I guess I have to get used to going slower. I’m getting to the point where I hate eating!
