Tomorrow I am 5 days post op and I can finally have full liquids! I am so excited. I know this means I can have Protein Shakes, but can I also have creamed Soups and things like pudding? I am excited to get food In me so I have energy!

That's great! I had my surgery on Monday and was on Clear Liquids for 24-48 hours then go to full liquids as tolerated, my surgeon wants me on solids by my 2 week post op visit. I've had a lot of incision pain but I am eating egg salad in vet y tiny bites and so far so good, now I just used egg and mayo but still going well.

I'm so hungry! I've mixed some chicken gravy jnto my broth to get me some calories, but I wonder why all our diets are so different. I can't function off 200 calories a day because I am just exhausted! I am scared to go against what the dr says, and I won't, but I feel like should have been able to completely tolerate shakes today

Part of the reason that you're so exhausted, is from the surgery; anesthesia, etc. It's an assault to your body, and it takes time to get your energy back.

It's true that all the doctors differ a bit in their protocol. On mine, full liquids was the Protein shakes, and any liquid that goes "naturally" through a straw. Creamed Soups were fine, as long as any solids were strained out. pudding wasn't acceptable until I advanced to soft/mushy foods. On full liquids I could have frozen yogurt, but not regular/greek yogurt. It's probably best to clarify what's acceptable with your doctor's office. There are so many variations, and it's most important that you stick to your doctor's progression.

Good luck!

Full liquids in my dr diet includes pudding and creamed Soup sent through the blender. Soups should be low cal and ff, pudding 60 cal and sugar free... Enjoy!

It is very odd how different each dr practices for the same procedure but it does work out in the end. Also to add the egg salad is not sitting well so it was probably not the best idea but hard boiled egg is on my list of can eat food.< /p>

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
