kcuster83, thank you so much for your response! i guess i'm just in my head a little bit about it and it's making me overthink. i will definitely keep in contact with my team and will try my best to follow my plan.
Every team and their plans differ so much you will get 100 different answers here.
Mine was 2 weeks each phase. 2 weeks liquids, 2 weeks pureed, 2 weeks super soft foods and then on to solid foods and slowly introducing yourself back into a normal balanced diet.
I would just follow the directions of your team, if you struggle when you get to a particular stage reach out to them for help/guidance.
hi everyone, i am new here and this is my first time posting.
i had my sleeve done 6/30/22 and i am currently 6 days post op. i feel great, the only discomfort (and i say that's pushing it) is one of my incisions on the left and a bit of gas that i still feel sometimes. i am still currently in the liquid diet, which my surgeon and nutritionist instructed would last up until the 9th. the pureed stage is next, but my real concern is the "solid food" phase.
my pureed stage is supposed to last from the 10th to the 19th, and then start reintroducing solid foods like well cooked chicken, fish, meat, and well cooked vegetables from the 20th to the 29th. i am scared to eat food again. are these dates okay for each phase? am i just overthinking this? i know i shouldn't question it since it was direct instructions from my surgeon and nutritionist but i am just scared. anybody else instructed to try solid foods before the 1 month post op date?
this blog has been extremely helpful. thank you so much in advanced
