Eating Post Op after Gastric Bypass

Had gastric bypass on the 22nd of July (so I'm 3 days post op). I have no clue what to eat. I know I'm on the liquid diet, but I'm DEFINITELY not eating enough. I feel dizzy tonight. I had 2 SF jellos yesterday and 2 today. What did y'all eat days 2-7?

Protein Shakes, Chicken Broth, drinking water, I also got sugar free power aide, I had yogurt, those are things I been eating and seems to help me out. The first days I also had headaches maybe you need to drink more fluids you are probably dehydrated :(

Sorry I will have two weeks that I had my surgery on Wednesday and then to face two of foods ;)

I been using Silk Almondmilk Unsweetened Vanilla with my Bariatric advantage High Protein MEal Replacement Chocolte Flavored. I normally well my mom makes it for the whole day so we blended also add a banana and a bit of water if it's to thick. I love it!! I tried the Vanilla flavor ones and I just didn't like them.

I was so nausiated that the only thing I could tolerate was Crystal Light and GRAPE! sugar free popsicles. I had some clear chicken broth in the house, but never drank it. So it was towards the end of the 2nd week before I started eating anything.

I had my sleeve on July 16th and lucky I haven't had a problem drinking my shakes. I tried atkins and I just couldn't stand the taste :( it felt weird on my tummy.

@joatsaint- glad to hear I'm not the only one! ;)

@lovingdavid- I'm just hoping the blended/puréed stage makes things easier.the no options thing is very hard.

Dimandgirl yes let's hope it's much easier, one thing I tried was the sugar free jello and couldn't have it because it was super sweet for me..

You may or may not be allowed protein shakes at this point. Every doctor is different. I was on clear liquids only the first week. Of course you're weak, tired, and dizzy right now. You just had surgery. It will get better. I did not have a single thing other than water and jello week 1 aka no calories and I'm fine.

Knit yes I have to agree with you that all doctors are different because I started protein shakes at the hospital the day after my surgery. I did not like the vanilla flavor was good with chocolate ;)
