I can't find where applesauce is listed in my post-op book under a certain diet. Does anyone know what their docs say? is it under full liquid? pureed? I have been eating it but my sister just pointed out to me it wasn't listed under full liquid diet....I thought it was....

Applesauce is a mushy food...not a liquid.

Yogurt is also not a liquid, yet it is listed as ok under full liquids....

your dr. must have a different definition of liquids. yogurt was also a mushy/pureed food per my post op list. just to be sure, call the office to confirm that applesauce is ok.

another example of how different dr's are

on my full liquids, i was allowed applesauce and yogurt (which i dont eat)

as long as you are eating/drinking what you dr advised/suggested

then you are good.

I as told by my nurse to empty my pills into applesauce and take them that way the day after surgery. I had a hard time digesting it I only ate the amount necessary to get the medicine in my body, but it seems to be ok if you are handling it well.

Yogurt is listed under mushy on my post op list. Dr's are different so definitely double check w yours :)

My post-op diet is 3 days of Clear Liquids, then 5 weeks of full liquids + Protein Shakes. Applesauce is ok (no sugar added). This is my 4th post-op day, just had my first "full liquid meal"- runny oatmeal, with half a package of Unjury unflavored Protein. Four tablespoons filled me up. Daily goal is 40-60 gms protein, but everyone's requrements are different.

Applesauce is on the permitted foods, (No more than 2) for day 3. This is from True Results out of Scottsdale. But I would follow what your provider recommends since they will be the ones supporting you.

Did applesauce as mushy food and still do. Have a teaspoon of sugar free coolwhip on top. Oh, yummy! (I say that sarcastically).

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
