10 days post op - not feeling restriction



Recommended Posts

So my paperwork said to spend 10 days in clears, 10 days in full liquids, then 10 days mushy BUT you could move up the next phase earlier if you don't have any nausea or issues - but no solids till 1 month no matter what. So my stomach feels great - have had no nausea whatsoever. So I spent 6 days in clears, then 3 in full, and now am in mushy/soft. But I am not feeling full EVER. I am not feeling hungry, so that is good, but I am worried I am overdoing the food since I am not feeling restriction. Don't want to stretch this sucker out or put stress on the stitches. In the last 90 minutes, I had a cup of Soup, a pudding cup, and an applesauce cup. Does that seem like too much?

Until you are on "solids" you might not feel full. Remember, liquids are pushed through pretty quickly.

As to the amounts, if you can eat it and it satisfies, I think you are fine. I'd suggest eating and then no snacking till the next mealtime (between is Water time)...

That is normal. Like Arts as aid, the restriction is not really felt until your stomach heals a bit more and you begging eating solids. I started feeling my restriction around 6 weeks out.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
