I'm on the purée diet and wanted to make scrambled eggs? Thoughts on this? I was going to add milk to make them more purée.

I use optisource Vitamins. They are specific for bariatric patients. I bought them at Walgreens. It's about $28 a month for them. They have an orange, citrus taste to them.

Does the premier Protein mess with anybody's G.I. tract? I was drinking them and they gave me diarrhea.

My dr said 3 days after being released from hospital. If no poop to take milk of magnesia. The pain killers slow down your whole system.

I am extremely happy with my decision for revision from band to RNY. I feel so much better. No more acid reflux. I can actually eat salads and raw veggies now. I hadn't been able to in years. The surgery was no big deal, either. Minimal pain.

I just had to do 3 appointments with nutrionist, and see a pulmonologist. I had a chest x-ray, upper gi, and blood work. The whole process was about 2 months.
liquid preop diet for 2 weeks. I was really hungry at first, but after the first 3 days I was fine. I also had to drink magnesium citrate this morning and Clear liquids all day. Not to bad! I will update hopefully tomorrow after surgery.

Update today... gas pain has subsided so much and ive been able to drink so much more regularly than my first couple of days home. 5 days post-op now and my goal is to get 50g Protein today and stay hydrated and keep moving. Off pain meds and feeling so much better!

I would stay on purée an extra week or two to give your to stomach a much needed time to heal.

Thank you, my surgeon puts everyone on blood thinners too, I will be on them for 10 days post op - lovenox I believe. I will most likely having my gallbladder removed at the same time so I am not sure how long it will make the surgery and what to expect from recovery...
Hope you will start feeling better... Maybe it's certain Protein or food that is not working for you?

This is probably TMI, but I had my revision from band to RNY on April 1. I had a gi bleed afterwards and had to get a blood transfusion. I'm doing fine now. I'm on the blended/pureed stage for eating. I'm getting about 60 grams of Protein in. Drinking Water about 40-60 oz. per day. My question is, dis any of you experience diarrhea afterwards? It's usually 2-3 times per day. Just curious if this gets any better.
Thank you.

Try and write an appeal letter. My insurance denied me at first to, because I had been successful with the band. In your letter tell them about all the comorbidities that you are trying to avoid. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App
