I am 9 days post op and am just now feeling good. Am on full liquids for another week and then off to soft foods. I am so happy it is over but really am looking forward to eating again! I am actually craving cottage cheese! I think I am just tired of sweet Protein drinks! Anyways, looking forward to this journey

It is amazing all the different diets the surgeons' but us on. My surgery was 9/11 and I was allowed to do cottage cheese, yogurt, refried Beans, sf pudding on day four and today I am to start with soft boiled eggs or poached eggs. food does look good, but I'm not hungry and trying to even get the above in is almost impossible for me. Just trying to get in all the fluids first. Agree the Protein Drinks are getting rather old. But we can look forward to eating somewhat normal down the road, just not as much.

Oldandyoung I agree with you! I have read books and blogs and, of course, my own post op instructions. There is such a large variance! I think my surgeon is on the conservative side, yet I am supposed to be on a 'normal' diet at 4 weeks. Can't imagine! I only have 3 more days before cottage cheese and soft boiled eggs. Am looking forward to something different. Even if only a few bites.

I agree, it is interesting the different diets we are all on. Supposedly, at 4 weeks I should be on a regular rny diet. Had fish yesterday with no issues. Am looking forward to continue hearing how everybody is doing throughout this experience!

      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!!
