So as of this Tuesday I will be cleared to eat full foods, and I'm nervous. Can anyone give me any ideas on what I should eat? Please and thank you!

I'm still having a hard time myself. I eat a lot of salad with avocado, green Beans, tuna fish sometimes chicken if it's really moist. My Dr, told me to try everything but still working on that. Also he wants me to wing off the Protein Shakes that's hard. Oh I can eat one egg with cheese but not to often cause it makes me too full. Haven't tried bread and don't plan to.

Why 'wing off Protein Shakes?'. And i'm guessing by 'wing' you mean wean?

I know!!! Protein Shakes are a lifesaver. 'real food' is probably better and more natural for us, but at the level of grams we need...that's a lot of food on a tiny tummy!

My doctor told me if I need a Protein Shake to get my Protein in to have it. He just told me to be patient it will come in time.

      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!!
