Yay! I start my full liquid week tomorrow (week 2 post op), I'm going to the store and wondering if you guys could give me any ideas on what to buy or kinds of Soups I can eat... Excited about this 2nd week!

Full liquid just means that you're still on the same liquids as the first week, but you can add watery Protein shakes, runny Cream of Wheat/Malto Meal, milk, and s/f pudding and ice cream. That's about it. No Soup, unless it's blenderized AND strained (no bean/veggie skin etc). Any Soup with lots of Protein (bean/pea), or even make your own. Pureed/strained lentils and canned soy Beans are plentiful protein sources. You can add n/f or 1% milk and/or Water to anything to thin it out. Don't eat anything that it too thick, or you may be sorry that you did!

Sorry to break it to you, but your body is still healing and can only handle watery stuff still. Didn't your surgeon give you the list? When you get into the puree phase, you'll have more variety, but believe me, it's difficult to even eat that at times! :)

so I'm on the full liquid diet so that means I can have My Protein shakes? on my paper it says jello' date='soups.s/f Popsicles. but I see a lot of people having shakes? I'm seriously starving! My tummy Turns when I heat up Soup. :( I'm 8 days out so idk[/quote']

Full liquid usually includes shakes but call your surgeons and ask. We pay them all this money to be there for us!

My full liquids include Protein Shakes, cream Soups, applesauce, cottage cheese, sf pudding, sf Popsicles, sf frozen yogurt....I actually was also able to get down string cheese at this point because its a soft cheese.

I went to my post op yesterday and I got no help from the nurse practitioner.. When I asked about this phase of the diet because the info they gave me has no info, she said to read the "list" they gave me because its self explanatory... uuugghhh. So frustrating!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
