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']

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 changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
