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...

      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!!
