What R U Eating 11 Day Postop?



Recommended Posts

Mine too. And I'm still mad about the mashed potatoes and grits. Go State must be southern, no one else likes grits! :)

Grits are a "staple" here in Mississippi! ;) They are even better with sausage crumbled in them (Which I am NOT doing now LOL).

5 day post-op' date=' you'll probably think I'm crazy but I have a baby tsp of scramble eggs yesterday. Then all my family got together and they ordered pizza for the kids. I got a lil slice and would chew the heck out of it, then spit it out!!! pizza never tastes so good. I'm done with the protien drinks and Jello :( does anyone know what would happen if we did eat a piece of food down our throats? Good luck :)[/quote']

Yes I think ur crazy and playing w fire

Go State, I'm just jealous that's all. They are a staple in the Carolina's also. I just miss them. :(

Hello friends!! I don't want to be a Debbie downer, but stick to your liquids for now!! Trust me I know it's a pain but it will get easier. Have broth it's the best. I still love it being 2amd a half months out. Liquids are the bessstttt option right now. You do not want to go to fast into eating something you shouldn't and get sick. Trust me it's no fun.

Try some watered down grits. I did at 10 days. It helped me feel more full & satisfied. My friends doctor put her on this at day 8. So I did it at day 10. Made me feel so much better. Eat it very slow & do not over eat. I put some Splenda in it. At day 14 I added a small amount of smashed up banana.< /p>

I love love this thread. I had my surgery on Aug 1. I'm suppose to start soft foods 3 weeks out. I can relate everyone that has posted something. I too get angry when I fix my kids food or when we go out to eat. I have been nibbling on small pieces of protien just because I can't handle it! I am new to this forum. Does anyone know of a support group that had their surgery the first of Aug? Thanks!

I am appalled that people are allowed to have surgery without information. The place I went to had six months of taking classes, attending support groups and reviewing then signing off on information sheets. I wondered why the death across the country is so high but not one at the place I go to and now I know. Come on people, you are responsible for your own success. Why did you do this to begin with? Yes, it's hard but it's temporary. Every day is better than the last. You can do it if you try. It's ok to feel like you feel but it's not ok to put your life in danger for a bite. Think about how crazy that is.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
