Moving To Soft Food Phase Help!



Recommended Posts

Hi. After a load of issues in my first week and a half doc says I can move into the soft food phase next Wednesday. I am terrified. I have no idea where to start. Can my fellow banders, can anyone give me some coaching and suggestions on what to start with and how much and how often.

My dietician is on holidays and gave me some info.

Do u have any issues with the change in your diet

Thanx guys it so great having someone to share my experiences with.

Sleevers here..if anyone here had a band most have revised to sleeve. Not sure you'll receive many responses since this is a gastric sleeve site. But welcome and good luck. Im sure some of the info here is useful to you as well.

Don't worry, I was afraid too. However, just take one food at a time. Also, I chew like the dickens until it's paste in my mouth. I started with a scrambled egg and a teeny-weeny squirt of PAM. I just chewed each bite thoroughly. It takes me about 30 minutes to eat it and it's very satisfying to eat regular foods again. Also, I bought canned chicken at costco and blend it with a little bit of lite-mayo. Just remember to chew, wait, chew, wait...etc.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
