Im 10 days post op and i just wish i can eat real food.. I curious to know if anyone tried eating food this early?

I really need to get with a provider because i really dont know what im "allowed" except for that paper they gave me when i left but its confusing nd i dnt like it i know how u feel when i ate that salad i had to put my finger down my throat because the fullness feelin was too painful nd i was scared i might cauae my self to leak but i hope u feel better. Goodluck

I definitely was told no salad or raw fruits and vegetables for months. I would seek a provider ASAP. Salad will fill you quickly...lots of fiber.

I know the feeling n was wondering the same thing...I havent had nausea or anything except drinking cold water hurts a lil but ice is fine...im 2wks out on thurs n I have nibbled a lil bit out of habit(I have eat during bordom syndrome lol) but im trying to just stay away from the kitchen period...im drinking my shakes n not really having an appetite but as soon as I smell food my brain n mouth need to taste it but my stomach can do w out it....don't know what to do at this point but hope it goes away! Any suggestions?????

Im right there with u... My husband told me im in the house all the time i dnt go to school yet or hve a job so he suggested finding something i like to do and keeping busy nd i just need to keep those thoughts away this early i dnt want to harm my body knowing that i hve people that need me needs to be stronger thn the desire for food! Good luck nd if u find any suggestions pls share

Salad?! Cheese and rice! Who did surgery? what kind of place would not give you some guidelines??

OMG be careful here are two examples

Thnks ) this is way more understandable

Google gastric sleeve diet. Many of the bariatric surgeons have their diet progressions online. Here is a link to one: http://www.northwestobesitysurgery.com/pdf/sleeve-gastrectomy-diet.pdf

I know! I thought that was good too!

I had my surgery in Mexico, so I had the same problem when I came back. But then I found the online diet progressions and everything has been good since then :-)

I was told to start regular foods ten days out, was sent home on full/soft foods such as yogurt and cottage cheese. I feel awesome. If see what the dr says

I had my surgery in Mexico with Dr. GARCIA and Ready 4 a change. I received lots of info and cell numbers for all docs and staff.

That's nice.

Call and talk to your Nut, they are usually very helpful

Good question. I did not. The biggest chance of a leak, and we do not want a leak....is the first six weeks. I wasn't hungry and was so excited about the surgery, I didn't want to do anything that wasn't on the 'plan'. I always figure, if something bad can happen, why not me!!! LOL

Good luck, week three should probably allow soft food. Go get tortilla Soup at a Mexican food restaurant, tell them more broth, less 'stuff' and just sip the broth. You'll think you're in heaven!
