Has Anyone Cheated On There Phases?



Recommended Posts

I do believe that 6 days out is a little early to be eating the chicken and noodles from chicken noodle Soup, but each surgeon is a little different in their instruction.

I was told by the surgeon that they have you on liquids only so that nothing gets lodged in the incision line and causes an infection to set in and/or leak (both of which could require further surgery where they open you up with a 5 inch incision). That was enough to scare me....

Certainly not here to judge you but would encourage you to get back on the phases and stick with them, you will have plenty of time to eat in a few weeks for the rest of your life.

Good Luck!

I totally sympathize! I have 4 more days on full liquids, then I progress to mushies or pureed foods and right now I am so sick of liquids I could gnaw on a bone. Lol! BUT, your stomach is still very swollen. Stick to your doctor's plan. Better safe than sorry. :-P You have the rest of your life to eat & chew "real" food!

I was suppose to be on fluids for the first 3 weeks, and I added some yogurt, sf pudding, sf Jello. It wasn't a problem at all for me.

i had some crackers on my tenth day, I just needed something to nibble on. I ate one (slowly, swear that I chewed it 50 times) and put the rest in my broth.< /p>

I am 10 days out and was wondering if it is too early to try scrambled eggs, even if they are put in blender. I am going crazy from 2 week diet. I am drinking Protein Shakes, ff/sf puddings, and Jello. Is this considered the mushy/pureed or does that come after the two weeks. I am meeting with my nut on the 19th. Has anyone tried scrambled eggs before two weeks.

I tried eggs about 3 days post op & they made me sick. My surgeon told me I may not be able to eat them for a couple of months but not to count them out. It will prob have to be a trial & error for you. You may not have any problems but I did . I'm 5 weeks post op now & I'm still not ready to try them again...

      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? 🤷‍♀️
