I'm one week post op and my doctor want me to eat soft foods but I can't it still get tuck in my chest today I had my first dumping and it did not feel good at all

Mrz. Thick

I find it so strange how different the diet directions are for post Op patients. I asked my dietician if I could eat soft foods and she said to hold off because I'm not healed yet. I get nervous to move on to the next step, but it would be great to have more options. I wish you the best!!!

Thank you

Mrz. Thick

Try the unjury chicken soup it is good.

I agree its soooo good. I have the unflavored but have not opened it yet. The chicken soup flavor is a must have and it has SO much protein! I was so surprised when I tasted it.

After all the protein drinks I've tried, this one is at the top of my list. It's the one thing I've had that tastes nothing like protein (you now the aftertaste factor). I had it for a week and I didn't open it since I was trying other things and I wish I opened it sooner! I will be ordering more containers today so I don't run out. It's one scoop to 8 ounces of water and you get 17 scoops in a container. I mix it with a bit more water than that and it's perfect for me. I'm out of town right now, but when I get back home I'm going try the unflavored and post on it tomorrow.

I just bought some. I also saw a few recipes on the website once I graduate to soft foods. :-).

I go to my forts follow up PostOp appointment later today. I hope to have good news! The dermabond on the inscriptions is slowly coming off. Only one is a lil irritated. I know I've lost weight. My clothes are already getting loose. A lot of the swelling has gone down now too. :-). Have a great day everyone!!!

Went to my 1 month post appointment Tuesday. Heeling fine and getting my energy back.

I'm down 15 lbs post op (total of 44lbs since starting my 6 month diet). Very excited that I've dropped 2 pant sizes and 1 shirt size since surgery.

Hey fellow sleevers I went today for my two weeks post op. And I lost 22.5lbs I am so happy I feel better with each day. I have to make this change for the better. I am too young to carry around all this weight. But thank God I am on the road to be a healthier Me!!! Good luck everyone

Okay... I officially have the diet blues. It's been three weeks since my surgery and I feel like I'm stuck in a rut.

Why?

I knew that this wouldn't be easy but wow... this is really hard. Trying to combat the foods I can't have. Being on this mushy/liquid diet and eating the same stuff is getting old. I know that the end result will be worth it but getting there is a journey.
