I had my surgery on July 27 with Dr. Aceves. I'm on vacation in another province right now and don't have the list for full fluids that I was emailed before surgery. I know of milk, Protein shakes, yogurt drinks - anything else? Many thanks

Kim

Here's the list that VegasAngel sent me. She is a a Dr. Aceves patient and this is what was sent to her by his staff.

Here are a few ideas concerning the post op diet

Propel

broth

Jello-O

Water

Protein Water by Kellogg’s

Water popsicles

Clear Protein drinks only ( example Isopure, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury )

All of the above and:

Watermelon, papaya or melon in small pieces

Low fat milk 1 or 2%

Water, Propel, tea

Soy beverages

Hi There,

I am new to the forum and am having the Sleeve done August 17th from Dr. Joya.

I'm on day 3 of my liquid pre-op diet...getting cranky...lol :-) It sounds like you are happy and doing well with the sleeve yourself. Thanks for the advice on the diet.

Hi Meowmeow, and welcome. Don't worry, we all get a little cranky during the pre and post-op diet phases.

Thanks so much Tiffykins, that's exactly what I needed. It sure doesn't seem like there is much difference between full and mushies, does it.

Not really LOL.

But, I will say that watermelon was a god-send. I swear, I was in heaven for those 5 little bites of watermelon once I was able to have it.

Hey Kim, how are you doing after surgery?

I am making it a little better every day.

My drain wound is the only thing bothering me but boy does it hurt. it is exactly where I bend to sit or stand. I'll be happy when it gets better. Have you spoken to Jaz since ya'll left?

Did you have a good flight home? How are you with you liquids?

I'm trying to get mine all in but I run just a little short on them right now.. I feel great though.

It was nice meeting you in Mexicali.

Hope you have a speedy recovery

Hugz,

Penny:rolleyes:

Thanks for posting that Tiff -- I was just getting ready to pull up my email again!

Hi Penny,

I feel great! No incision or tummy pain at all. Occassionally, if I hiccup or something I get a little shoulder pain but otherwise nothing. Fluids have been going down fine but I just cringe at my next drink of Water and adding anything to it makes it so sweet tasting. So like you, I am probably a bit short each day. Also, being on vacation it isn't as convenient to grab something from the fridge you know? I had a brief message from Jaz last week but nothing since. Hope she is doing okay. It was great meeting you too, hope you keep doing well and keep in touch.

Wow Penny you still have a drain? You said it hurt. It is not red and angry or anything is it? I had a drain in my neck after surgery to remove a salivary gland. It didn't hurt but I was on pain medication.

I am doing enjoying my sleeve. However I have stopped loosing weight. I need to try much harder. Good luck to you.

No my drain is gone, but the spot where it was is still hurting. It is right where i bend or twist.. ouch it hurts everytime, but it isnt' red. So i guess it is just getting my attention and telling me to stop moving like that. LOL

Good luck to all of you. I just wanted to say that once you can have the sf pudding, it's really good frozen for something different.

I also really enjoyed egg drop Soup. It's one of the Soups that actually has some Protein in it. I also had cream of chicken soup but made sure to put it in the blender to blend it up fine enough that there were no chunks what so ever in the soup.

Daisy,

Egg Drop soup is allowed on full liquids? I"ve been trying to find that out and haven't seen anyone else that posted they could have it.

I've been wanting it really badly...

I posted a recipe for it made with tofu --- extra protein - it was really good and flavorful. And yes, it's allowed on full liquids -- slurp away!
