What are some examples of everyone's post op diet? I'm one week post op and I'm supposed to have another week of clear liquids. I'm not sure I can do it I feel great but I'm ready for yogurt or pureed food.

I started having small bites of yogurt and refried beans. I felt like I was not taking in enough protein, the shakes were turning off my appetite. Just make sure you drink enough water!

Take it very slow...You need to give your new sleeve time to heal..I had to do 3 weeks of liquids, so I know it's hard. The biggest concern my doctor said was throwing up while your still healing, so try to stick to the liquids and yogurt for however long your surgeon suggested..

Thank you for both of your answers. I might try a little bit of yogurt to see how my stomach feels. I liked protein drinks up until the day before surgery now looking at one makes me feel ill.

This is what my doc does...

Days 1-2 clear liquids

Days 3-6 add light yogurt, cream Soups (strained), applesauce, thin oatmeal and Protein shakes.

Days 7 add refried Beans thinned with skim milk, cottage cheese, scr eggs

Day 14 add deli turkey/ chicken, baked/ oiled fish, tuna, soy burger, yogurt, ricotta, cooked veggies, cheese, and canned fruit (no sugar)

Day 50 start adding everything else, just restrict to one new food per day

From what I can tell my doc is pretty liberal with the diet. He has no food restrictions. I am on day 23 and the only thing I've had issues with (from the list) is melted cheese. I don't think I could get it chewed upwelling enough.

Your Dr is pretty liberal. How has your weight loss been thanks for replying
