at 2 weeks:

-cream of wheat made with milk- kinda of thin. There is Protein in it!

-pushed up cottage cheese

- soft cheese like babybel- let is sit at room temp for about 10 mins. first they melt in your mouth.

-greek yogurt.

-if you can tolerate them refried Beans. with a little sour cream.

Thats what I lived off of from 2 weeks to 1 month

I just posted a Blog on Guidelines Post Op Diet: Maybe this can help you!

I personally ate:

Cream of Rice - made very thin and easy to eat.

Cream of Zuchini Soup

Cream of Brocolli Soup

chicken broth

sugar free pudding

Almond Milk

Low fat or Fat Free Yogurt (Latosse Free)

Do you have a diet guide from your doc? If so follow what it says.

Is it hunger? Or is it acid/reflux? Maybe head hunger.

I am one week post- op and I feel like I'm hungry too! It was so easy being at the hospital and knowing there wasn't food to look at, but since I have come home and have had to cook for my family, I feel like I could turn into a psyco path! I sometimes have to chew gum to satisfy my urge to chew. I cannot wait to have real food again.

It will get better but it can get so tough I actually cried. Egg drop Soup was my "treat" because it didn't seem like diet food. Creamy Soups were great for me as well. Hang in there and stay diligent. It WILL get better.

I found a new love for split pea Soup at that stage! I really needed to thin down refried Beans if I ate them. Out of the can they were way too thick. Greek yogurt is good just watch for sugar. Stick to sugar free plain if you can.

I am in the same boat! I'm two weeks out and at first cooking wasn't bad bc I knew I couldn't have it and I didn't even want it but now I'm like what the hellllll am I putting myself through!! It's like torture!! Seriously. I made BBQ chicken last night for my hub and it smelled so amazing and I was so ready to be like "screw it one bite won't kill me" (I didn't). It was brutal. I have been living off tuna green Beans yogurt and was given a fab recipe for buffalo chicken salad type thing from someone on here. It was amazzzzzeeee!! Probably too good. Pretty sure I over did it yesterday. lol but we can all do this!!!! Just keep drinking Water. It fills me (usually) for a while.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
