What does your doctor say? You need to go by the guidelines given by your doctor. For me, at 31 days out I was released to eat anything so I am allowed to try breads. The only problem with that being a month out is that if you are following the Protein first rule, there is no room for bread, at least for me at almost 6 weeks out, that is the case. I have had some special K crackers with laughing cow cheese. I tried a few pringles the other day and I was only able to eat two and I was full.

I pretty much try to avoid breads and most carbs right now. Here recently, I noticed that I feel more restriction than a few weeks ago so it is getting harder for me to get all of my Protein in thru the day. If I aded something so heavy like bread, it would be impossible.

Hey there! Did you make it until the 10 day mark on the clears only? I am STRUGGLING badly. I cant tolerate any of the clear protiens at all, they gag me so bad. If I could have the shakes I could do it!

Hi Sam,

How are you doing? How is Sonja?

Sorry to hear you are having trouble with Proteins. I can't stand them straight either, except for nectar, that is OK. I mix the Isopure chicken broth with real chicken broth and I made sugar free peach Jello with the peach mango Isopure. I also mixed it with crystal light peach iced tea. I just bought some diet ocean spray juice to mix with the grape isopure. Maybe if you dilute it you can tolerate it. I will be glad to get to the shakes as well. I am just sick of sipping sipping sipping.

I am still bloated so no movement on the scale for me

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
