I see so many of us are allow to eat many different things as the same stage post-op. I am 8 days post-op and would like to know what ya'll are/were allow to eat this week? I am only allowed clear fluids till day 10. Then I can try Diet V8, milk, yogurt, pudding,cream soups, and apple sauce.

Everyone seems to have a different program. I was on water only for the first 7 days. Then 3 protein shakes a day & water for another 14 days. It was a full 3 weeks before I was allowed soft/purees foods like yogurt. The beginning can be a bit rough. Just stick to your plan & you'll be fine.

I wasn't able to eat much for the 1st 3 or 4 weeks. I primarily lived on protein drinks, cream of mushroom soup and Crystal Light.

Week one: I could barely handle Protein shakes and soymilk or baby food. Plus Water or G2 Gatorade.

Week two: Protein Shakes (sometimes with a bit of Peanut Butter or banana blended in them), Greek yogurt, sugarfree pudding (with nonflavored Protein powder mixed in), baby food (with nonflavored protein powder mixed in), broth or tomato or cream of x soups (with nonflavored protein powder mixed in), applesauce, and a tiny bit of hummus. I drank water with lemon, G2 gatorade, soymilk, and iced mint tea.

Week three: all the above plus pureed chili, pureed chicken salad, cooked butternut squash, and egg drop soup. I even ate two bites of baked rhubarb!

I'm still finding mostly it's protein shakes. the "real" food - two tablespoons is all I can handle at a time (1/8 cup). liquids are much easier!

I was on Clear Liquids for one week, full liquids for weeks two and three. It had to flow easily through a strainer. Not even Jello or yogurt.

It was worth it.

I was sleeved on june 4th so it has been 1 week today and have just been drinking 3 protein drinks a day.

I just ate 1 popsicle and small container of jello. Is that normal or am i able to eat too much 7 days post op

everyone is told so many different things. I was sleeved on the 3rd. I am allowed to eat:

flavored water (less then 10 calories)

Tea and can add sugar sub.

SF Popsicles, fudgesicles ( I have been living off of fudgesicles (40 calories)

SF jello

broth

crystal light

I can have any of that till day 10

My doctor's post op plan is Water/ ice day of surgery, clear liquids day after surgery, full liquids post op day 2. I have to stay in hospital until I can handle full liquids well.

Full liquids. Cream of chicken soup and other cream soups, I got the 98% FF - I liked Celery and chicken the best, blended or strained. No chunkies. Yogurt, SF Jell-O, skim milk. These are the things that come to mind.

D u think being able to eat popsicle and jello together is too much i am worried i wont feel restriction when i eat i even feel craving for bite of normal food is that all normal?

I have the craving too. I think everyone does. I would LOVE a pulled pork sandwich right now! I am able to eat a whole fudgesicle and then I go right to drinking my tea. I eat/drink one thing at a time. Just take it easy and you will be ok.

i had my sleeve 6-6-2013. i feel hungry alot. is this normal?

I was sleeved on the 3rd of june and I was STARVING the first 6 days! None of the clear protein drinks settled well in my stomach so I lived on water and sugar free popsicles. Once I was able to start my Atkins protein drinks my hunger isn't as difficult to handle. Also....I was afraid to eat too much so I was doing about 2oz however I have learned that my stomach can take 4oz and then I FINALLY feel full. I believe that everybody is different and you will just have to learn what your new stomach can handle. Good Luck!

I had surgery on May 31st. No fluids or anything the first 24hrs after surgery. Then one day only water followed by 2 weeks of protein shakes (70 grams of protein per day), water (56 oz/day) clear fluids, broths. Saturday I start a week of adding strained low fat soups and then in the 4th week I can start soft foods. Nothing worth having ever comes easy is my motto.

I'm 2 weeks from surgery and I'm eating yoghurt, tuna, boiled egg, chicken breast in small bites... I don't have a hard time eating fruits and stuff... just that I needed to progress to the smash food quicker because my body can't handle protein shakes

Are you still losing? That is alot of food. I want to start other things because I too can't stand the protein shakes. I am just worried I will not lose the weight like I need to.
