Post op food guidelines



Recommended Posts

I can across this page and it laid everything out nicely for me. Maybe it will also help someone else who is getting ready for surgery. This is exactly what I needed and really makes me more comfortable with my new habits I need to create post op.

Thank you! This is very helpful as I am in preop stage and researching how to eat properly afterwards. :D

That's EXACTLY how I feel. Show me what I need and I can follow it. Make me search and come up with my own plan, I will fail.

Your nutritionist should have given you this at some point. Was that not the case?

I see her in a few weeks for my pre op.

This is a lot like the diet my doctor gave me, although it does progress slightly faster on a couple of things. :)

I looked at this site also and copied it. Loved the way it laid out the sample guidelines.

I wasn't trying to be rude. It honestly worried me if nutritionists weren't giving this. :) You are like me, you want to know this stuff ASAP. :)

Enjoy the journey!

I'm the same way about wanting to know asap. I have a generic guide from my surgeon but this lays it out way better.

just always refer to your nutritionist and surgeon because my post op diet is VERY different from this one.

Great overview. The one given to me by my nutritionist was similar, but it covered up to 7 weeks.

Keep doing research this will get you mentally ready for post-op.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
