1-2 Weeks Post Op... What Are You Eating?



Recommended Posts

because there's so much variation in our surgeons post op diets I thought I'd see what everyone else is doing post op day 7-14..

I am post op day 7 and basically still doing lots of Clear liquids with some full liquids thrown in.. one or two Protein shakes a day.. getting in about 60-70 oz Water (if you include all the broth lol) taking my chewable multivit and feeling good!

I wasn't able to drink all my Protein until today, day 7. You are pretty swollen at this point. I went and got my drains out today and my dr told me she doesn't care if I drink or eat anything at all as long as I get my Protein shakes in. Then if I am still hungry or thirsty, then I can have broth and Water etc. I know all Dr.'s are different though!

I am on day 6 and was on clear liquids only until this morning. Now I am on full liquids for 2 weeks - today I had Protein Shakes, some greek yogurt (the second serving I flavored with guacamole seasoning of all things) and cream Soups.< /p>

      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!!
